Cristian Măcelaru, conductor | Philippe Quint, violin



American violinist Philippe Quint gives sparkle and polish to each note of Mendelssohn’s immortally vibrant Violin Concerto on a program that also features a luscious arrangement for orchestra of Brahms’s Piano Quartet in G minor that abounds with memorable melodies. Bach’s Ricercare from Musical Offering, with its dialogue of overlapping voices, creates a brilliant and complex musical structure, and brings the inventive genius of Bach to the forefront.

Bach, arr. Webern Ricercare from Musical Offering
  Mendelssohn Violin Concerto

Brahms, arr. Schoenberg Piano Quartet in G minor
