Symposium 79 - 22 October 2006

Symposium LXXIX
22 October 2006
The 22nd Season Opener
Beethoven & Brahms String Quintets

Mark Steinberg & Colin Jacobsen, violins
Dov Scheindlin & David Miller, violas
Nina Lee, ’cello


To inaugurate Helicon’s first season of Symposiums at Kosciuszko, we’ve gathered an impressive ensemble of virtuoso string players for a rare gut-string performance of masterpieces by Beethoven and Brahms. We begin with Beethoven, his splendid Quintet in C Major, Op. 29. Among the finest works from his early creative period, this is the composer’s only quintet originally conceived for strings. In the magnificent tumult of the last movement, Beethoven creates such vivid musical effects that the work became known as “The Storm.” We then move to Johannes Brahms’ glorious Quintet in G Major, Op. 111. Opening with shimmering strings under a sweeping ’cello melody, this work is symphonic in scope and contains some of Brahms’ most engaging and emotionally generous chamber music. His lush textures and rich harmonies will be enhanced by the earthy sound of gut strings.
