CURTIS ON TOUR | PIANO QUARTET Friday, May 31, 2024, 8 pm Konzerthaus Berlin, Chamber Music Hall
Next week already they come to the Konzerthaus Berlin: the Piano Quartet of Curtis on Tour, the global touring initiative of the Curtis Institute of Music, initiated by Nina von Maltzahn. Only four percent of all applicants are accepted by this exclusive music academy in Philadelphia, USA, which trains particularly talented young musicians to win audience hearts at the highest artistic level. On May 31, you will have the chance to hear four fabulous young Curtis alumnae live in concert!
The violinist Shanshan Yao, the violist Haesue Lee, the cellist Jean Kim and the pianist Pallavi Mahidhara present not only the romantic trio for violin, cello and piano “Saans” by the Indian-American composer Reena Esmail, but also Felix Mendelssohn’s enchanting Piano Quartet No. 1 in C-minor. They will end the evening with Antonín Dvořák’s ingenious Piano Quartet No. 2 in E-flat-major.
