SUMMARY:Mendelssohn Magic
DESCRIPTION:Mendelssohn’s 2nd Piano Trio is unsurpassed. The way he weaves a Bach chorale melody into the final movement is spellbinding and worth the ticket price alone. Two other trios\, each involving the flute of Heather Zinninger\, set the stage. Undine Smith Moore’s Suite is hauntingly evocative\, while Weber’s Flute Trio shows how much the Romantic Period is indebted to this German master. \nAfro American Suite – Undine Smith Moore\nFlute\, Cello\, and Piano \nTrio in G Minor\, Op. 63 – Carl Maria von Weber\nFlute\, Cello\, and Piano \nTrio No. 2 in C Minor\, Op. 66 – Felix Mendelssohn\nViolin\, Cello\, and Piano \nHeather Zinninger\, Flute • David Perry\, Violin • Mara McClain\, Cello • Jeannie Yu\, Piano \nHeather is sponsored by the Jean Berkenstock Family Fund. David is sponsored by the Nancy T. & David A. Borghesi Fund of the Community Foundation of the Lowcountry and Mary Hauser & Jerry Randall. Mara is sponsored by Bob & Alice Chrismer. Jeannie is sponsored by Mary Hauser & Jerry Randall. \nThe Mendelssohn Magic program is sponsored by the Women’s Fund of the Door County Community Foundation. \nReserve Tickets

SUMMARY:Dvořák\, Bruch\, and Beethoven 7
DESCRIPTION:Beethoven authorized his publisher to arrange his 7th Symphony for String Quintet. In an age when the symphony orchestra was relatively rare\, a chamber arrangement improved the opportunity for sales. This intimate and profound glimpse into the heart of the work is revelatory. Dvořák’s Notturno and Bruch’s recently published Quintet provide provocative precursors for this concert of masterpieces. \nNotturno in B Major\, Op. 40 – Antonin Dvořák\nTwo Violins\, Viola\, Cello\, and Bass \nQuintet in A Minor\, Op.

SUMMARY:Coffee Talk: Music and Revolution: 1789\, 1848\, 1917
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Peter Conroy: “Music and Revolution: 1789\, 1848\, 1917” \nDr. Conroy’s presentation is about the connection between music and revolutions. This is not\, however\, a close or tight connection. There is no direct link between music and politics except perhaps rock and roll as the Czech playwright Tom Stoppard maintained. Oh\, you think he’s British just because he wrote Rosencrantz and Guildenstern among other hits. But he spoke from behind the Iron Curtain. Different cultures\, different opinions\, as Pascal said. \nThe connections are indirect and subtle. There are ranges of influence. There is no direct link between political and social revolutions and the music of the same period. Yet\, there are tangents\, points at which the two separate spheres make contact. \nDr. Conroy will talk about three major revolutions: the French revolution of 1789 and the Russian revolution of 1917. But he will concentrate on the less known revolution of 1848. \nAfter the social and political upheaval caused by the French Revolution and the Napoleonic wars\, Europe tried to re-establish the aristocratic\, monarchial hegemony that had existed previously. This effort failed spectacularly in 1848\, when civil unrest\, uprisings\, and bloody violence in the streets swept over the major cities of Europe. \nBefore 1848\, empires like the Holy Roman Empire and the Austro-Hungarian Empire encompassed huge populations. By 1848\, however\, these populations had developed a new consciousness: nationalism. People formerly under one single ruler now felt they were different\, unique. They had their own culture\, their own ethnicity\, their own history. And they wanted to express it. \nThis sentiment overflowed into music. We usually recognize it in what we call programmatic music and also in dance. To buttress his case\, he plans to evoke composers and compositions that you know quite well. He hopes you will see – and more importantly – hear them in a new way. \nFrom Beaumarchais to Bartok\, from Brahms to Victor Emmanuel II Rei d’Italia\, from the Grimm Bothers to Richard Wagner\, from Aran Coplan to Fredy Grofé\, he argues that music and revolutions can have sympathetic affinities.
