Event Time: 07:30 PM - 11:59 PM
Location:
440 Bank Street
Norfolk, VA 23510
Description:
Co-presented with The Feldman Chamber Music Society and Virginia Arts Festival. So much of the great string quartet repertoire has come from Czech composers; there has come to be a deep appreciation among chamber music fans for what is known as “the Czech tradition.” The Zemlinksy Quartet has become a much-lauded example of that tradition, winning top prizes in international competitions and releasing a library of critically acclaimed recordings. In their Virginia Arts Festival debut, Van Cliburn Gold Medal-awarded pianist Olga Kern joins the ensemble for an evening of chamber classics, including Dvorák's fiery Piano Quintet No. 2.
