Bartók & Dvořák

This program spans three eras of classical music: the Romantic, the avant-garde, and the contemporary. Anthony Manzo, solo bassist of San Francisco’s New Century Chamber Orchestra, makes his Festival debut in Dvořák’s sonorous and sunny String Quintet in G Major, and violinist Yura Lee and pianist Zoltán Fejérvári present a riveting dialogue of rhythmic complexity in Bartók’s vibrant Sonata No. 1. Dutilleux’s Les Citations weaves a rich tapestry of sound with its unusual instrumentation of harpsichord, oboe, bass, and percussion.
