Helicon's 24th Season Explores Great Musical Cities

“TWO LATE MOZART QUINTETS”

Quintet for Strings in D Major, K. 593
Quintet for Clarinet and Strings in A Major, K. 581

Mozart lived out his final years in the sophisticated musical world of late 18th-century Vienna. This program pairs two of his masterpieces from that time in vivid period-instrument performances. Helicon’s internationally distinguished ensemble features the world’s foremost expert on historical clarinets, Amsterdam-based, Eric Hoeprich, who designs and builds his own instruments to period specifications. Our 88th Symposium opens with Mozart’s sublime String Quintet, K. 593. Written within a year of the composer’s death, it evinces no sign of diminished powers, but instead overflows with vigor, invention, and joy. Mozart’s beloved Clarinet Quintet is among the finest achievements of his last years and combines graceful intimacy with sparkling soloistic display.
