program

The afternoon's program features two quartets for clarinet and string trio: works by Bernhard Crusell (1775–1838) and Franz Krommer (1759–1831). Both composers wrote for the clarinet with charm, virtuosity, and a keen sense of chamber music dialogue. Their quartets are among the most beautiful pieces in the Classical-Romantic clarinet repertoire.

Between the pieces, evocative Christmas stories will be read by Marianne Hopsch. Thus, music and words combine to create a prelude to Advent in the peace and contemplation of a village church.
