Seattle Chamber Music Society: Music Under the Stars – Mozart, Martinů, & Dvořák

7:30pm – Student recitals
8:00pm – Live audio broadcast from Benaroya Hall

Every Seattle Chamber Music Society Summer Festival concert is broadcast into Seattle Parks where audiences enjoy chamber music in a casual, comfortable environment. The Music Under the Stars series is the perfect event to pack a picnic and bring your friends to the park and listen to these audio-only broadcasts. Before the broadcast and during intermission, talented, local student musicians perform live. Last year, over 2,600 people enjoyed these SCMS broadcasts.

The student recitals begin at 7:30 and the live audio broadcast gets under way at 8pm, with another short student performance during the intermission at Benaroya. This evening, the following live program will be broadcast from Benaroya Hall to the park:

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart – Sonata for Two Pianos in D major, K. 448
Piers Lane, piano / Orion Weiss, piano

Bohuslav Martinů – Duo No. 1 for Violin and Cello, H. 157
James Ehnes, violin / Robert deMaine, cello

Antonín Dvořák – String Quintet No. 3 in E-flat major, Op. 97
Kristóf Baráti, violin / Alexander Kerr, violin / David Harding, viola / Matthew Lipman, viola / Daniel Müller-Schott, cello
