SUMMARY:Close Encounters With Music: “The Golem” - A Vision in Sound and Cinema with the Avalon String Quartet
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\n  \n$35 Balcony / $60 Orchestra\nMahaiwe Member Discount Event\n \nMahaiwe Member Sale: \nFriday\, September 5 at noon  \nPublic Sale: \nWednesday\, September 10 at noon \nMahaiwe Members receive $5 off each ticket \nMonsters and magic spells! A masterwork of German expressionist cinema meets a live\, klezmer-infused score in a vibrant feast for the eyes and ears. Paul Wegener’s pioneering 1920 silent horror film Der Golem was so popular on release that it sold out movie houses in both Germany and America for months\, inspired Golem-themed operettas\, and became a critical influence on the 1931 film Frankenstein. Drawn from a medieval Jewish legend\, Der Golem tells the tale of the Jews of 16th-century Prague\, who create a giant figure out of clay to protect themselves—only to see it turn on them with violence. To heighten the atmosphere\, Israeli-born composer Betty Olivero weaves together traditional Yiddish folk tunes and Jewish liturgical music into a haunting score for clarinet and strings. Colorful\, ominous\, and electrifying\, the experience of hearing live musicians accompany the action on the big screen promises to be unforgettable.  \nThe Avalon String Quartet: Blaise Magnière\, violin; Marie Wang\, violin; Anthony Devroye\, viola; Cheng-Hou Lee\, cello\nSaerom Kim\, clarinet; Jonathan Yates\, conductor  \nThe Avalon String Quartet “—an ensemble that invites you—ears\, mind\, and spirit—into its music.” — Chicago Tribune  \n

SUMMARY:Close Encounters With Music: Vivace Chamber Orchestra – Mozart\, Mendelssohn\, Britten\, Bruch
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS$35 Balcony / $60 Orchestra\nMahaiwe Member Discount Event\n \n  \nThe Vivace players return! This New York-based chamber music collective shares the aim of performing the greatest works in the repertoire at the highest level. Their program is curated to showcase both unity of ensemble and rare musicianship. Looking back\, Mozart's Adagio and Fugue in C minor employs Bach's contrapuntal style but pushes into daring\, unexpected harmonies that sound as though they were composed a century later. Mendelssohn's miraculous Octet in E-flat major bursts with youthful verve and brilliance. At just 16\, he directed in the score that "This Octet must be played by all the instruments in symphonic orchestral style." Britten's Simple Symphony movements reveal his sense of fun and wit\, while Max Bruch's Kol Nidrei speaks in a universal voice—moving from supplication to promise and redemption.  \nVivace Chamber Orchestra\nYehuda Hanani\, cello

SUMMARY:Close Encounters With Music: Mostly Amadeus—Meet the Mozarts!
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\n  \n$35 Balcony / $60 Orchestra\nMahaiwe Member Discount Event\n \nMahaiwe Member Sale: \nFriday\, September 5 at noon  \nPublic Sale: \nWednesday\, September 10 at noon \nMahaiwe Members receive $5 off each ticket \nThe supernatural perfection of Mozart’s music was produced by a man many considered a “quill in divine hands.” Two sublime works—his Piano Trio in B-flat\, KV 502 and Quartet in G minor\, KV 478—may convince you of the same. To remind us of the humanity behind the legend\, the program sets Amadeus between his father Leopold—who wrote piano exercises for Amadeus and his sister Nannerl\, and shrewdly marketed his “child wonder”—and his son Franz Xaver\, who\, without the shadow of his father’s genius\, would have been remembered as a fine composer in his own right. A special attraction will be the world premiere of a newly discovered Mozart fragment\, found under unusual circumstances!  \nAnna Polonsky\, piano; Hye-Jin Kim\, violin; Ara Gregorian\, viola; Yehuda Hanani\, cello

SUMMARY:Close Encounters With Music: “On the Wings of Song”—Schumann’s Dichterliebe and Mendelssohn Piano Trio
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS$35 Balcony / $60 Orchestra (plus processing fees)\nMahaiwe Member Discount Event \nMahaiwe Members receive $5 off each ticket \nRobert Schumann’s setting of Heinrich Heine’s song cycle Dichterliebe—A Poet’s Love—is spellbinding. Love and betrayal are rendered with such intimacy that the boundary between singer and listener disappears. It is Romanticism at its most exquisite. Mendelssohn\, too\, was captivated by Heine’s genius and set several of his poems\, including “On Wings of Song.” His majestic Piano Trio in D minor expresses his belief in a harmonious\, enlightened world and the triumph of beauty. The charismatic baritone Tyler Duncan\, joined by collaborator pianist Adam Golka\, brings profound psychological insight to the text.  With a voice described as “honey-coloured and warm\, yet robust and commanding” (The Globe and Mail)\, baritone Tyler Duncan has performed worldwide to great acclaim in both opera and concert repertoire\, including major roles at the Met\, Spoleto Festival and with Handel and Haydn Society. \nTyler Duncan\, baritone; Adam Golka\, piano; Miranda Cuckson\, violin; Yehuda Hanani\, cello
