Telemann's Birthday

Evening Music | May 6, 2010
We'll honor George Philip Telemann's birthday with Sonata No. 6 in D Minor performed by American Baroque Ensemble, and get playful with theme and variations found in Mozart's Flute Quartet No. 3 in C.

Schumann's seductive Piano Trio No. 2 in F, Op. 80 will be the centerpiece of the 8 o'clock hour, followed by the alluring Aria for Clarinet by Albert Roussel performed by Janet Hilton. Shortly after 9, Neeme Jarvi leads the Bamberg Symphony with Martinu’s Symphony No. 6 (Fantaisies symphonique).

Gypsy spirit infuses the final hour of the program with the voices of Victoria de los Angeles and Jan de Gaetani, the latter singing Brahms's "Zigeunerlieder" with Gilbert Kalish at the piano. With mandolin dominating Il Giardino Armonico's fiery version of Scarlatti's Sonata in D Minor, you may find yourself dancing before winding down with Haydn's String Quartet in F.
