An exceptional trio will open this concert, bringing together violinist Joshua Bell, cellist Steven Isserlis, and pianist Richard Goode. In the second part, Brahms’s famous Piano Quintet will be performed by a team of charismatic chamber musicians who perfectly embody…
Schumann’s chamber music is renowned for its sensitivity, but also for its unexpected reversals of fortune: moments of delicate poetry suddenly give way to furioso episodes, in which the strings chant the notes with resolute authority, or, on the contrary, soar joyfully into the heights of their tessitura. There is nothing of the sort in Brahms’s Piano Quintet, although the relationship between the two composers is tangible. From the very first minute, the mass is said: a sombre, disquieting melody is uttered in unison, before a movement of fury explodes the framework of the monody and immediately falls back. At just thirty years of age, Brahms truly left his youthful composing days behind with this concise, scalpel-sharp work.
