Gone Fishing

Evening Music | May 6, 2010
Franz Schubert quoted some of his popular songs in his chamber music; none more famously than in the "Trout" Piano Quintet — which invokes (and plays around with) his song of the same name. Tonight, L'Archibudelli goes fishing with Schubert's delightful and beloved work.

Also, some other large works featuring pianos: we'll hear the Engerer/Meisenberg duo in Rachmaninoff's first suite for two pianos, his "Fantasie-tableux." Returning to the Piano Quintet is the Ensemble Musique Oblique in Saint-Saëns' Op. 14 in A minor.
