Mostly Free Mozart

Evening Music | May 6, 2010
The Mostly Mozart Festival offers a free preview concert of their season at Avery Fisher Hall this Friday. We'll kick things off tonight with our own little Mozartean grouping, including selections from "Die Zauberflöte" and "Zaide"; also, the beautiful choral piece "Ave verum corpus."

Tchaikovsky, Britten and Beethoven rule the rest of our evening respectively with the Fantasy Overture from "Romeo and Juliet," the Serenade for Tenor and Horn (featuring Ian Bostridge), and the String Quartet No. 12 in E-flat (courtesy the Smetana Quartet). Rounding it all off is Johannes Brahms's Horn Trio in E-flat; we'll hear soloists David Jolley, Mark Kaplan and David Golub.
