DACAMERA’s Other Worlds season opens with an all-star cast of artists in a varied program of solo and chamber works that sets the stage for what is to come: virtuosic Romanticism, Bluegrass and folk influences and the sublime beauty of Schubert.
Dynamic pianist Inon Barnatan plays solo and teams up with extraordinary violinist Tessa Lark for Ravel’s fiery Tzigane. Tessa Lark’s vibrant Appalachian Fantasy reflects her Kentucky roots. The ensemble comes together for Franz Schubert’s delightful “Trout” Quintet, written when the composer was just 22 years old. There is more of this legendary composer to come in this season’s Schubert Perspectives concerts.
Look for information coming soon about the on-stage, post-concert dinner with the artists!
“A breathtaking charisma that comes from gorgeously turned out technique, a masterly sense of color, and an expressiveness that can question, weep, or shout joy from the rooftops.”
— Philadephia Inquirer on Inon Barnatan
