Program December 22
In this Christmas concert, Camerata RCO and pianist Florian Verweij perform romantic and jazzy chamber music to warm you up in these dark winter days. As a sixteen-year-old, the Viennese symphony giant Gustav Mahler wrote his only piano quartet: one lump of compressed romantic drama from which his later monumental symphonies would spring. Fauré is also a delight: although he wrote his first piano quartet just after his relationship broke up, it exudes a pleasant warmth and infectious optimism. And then there is the "high class dinner music" of Paul Schoenfield, who was once the house pianist at an American steakhouse. His Café Music is laced with swing and rousing rhythms, plus a romantic slow dance to swoon over.
