Anton Bruckner: A Celebration

  • Antonín Dvořák: String Quintet op. 97 in E flat Major

  • Anton Bruckner: String Quintet in F Major

On September 4, 2024, Anton Bruckner would have been 200 years old. On this occasion, the Fernwood String Quartet, with guest Oana Potur on 2nd viola, is going to perform Bruckner’s famous String Quintet in F Major, his only major work for chamber music. This wonderful music - less ‘bulky’ than his symphonies, but still showing off the essence of his composition techniques - was written in 1878/79, in between his 5th and 6th symphonies.

Central Florida Composers Forum Concert

  • Dr Philips Center for the Performing Arts (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

The program promises to be a buffet of styles and moods from some of the best known composers living and working in the Orlando area. Alex Burtzos’s OMAHA (all the things you could be you are you were) is a piece about memories - their creation, retention, and ultimate dissolution. Troy Gifford’s Lumina is a lyrical and gorgeous serenade. Charlie Griffin’s Billing’s Portrait pays tribute to the father of the American choral tradition in a set that reimagines three of William Billings’ best known pieces, including the fiery Let Tyrants Shake.

Air from another Planet

Together with the wonderful soprano Samantha Barnes Daniel, we played Arnold Schoenberg's String Quartet No. 2 in F♯ minor, Op. 10 (1908). In this work, where Schoenberg finally breaks with classical tonality, the quartet is joined by a soprano in the final two movements.

The concert opened with Mozart's String Quartet in d Minor, K 421.
