THE NEW ESTERHAZY QUARTET – “String Quartet in D Major, Opus 20 No. 4” by Haydn

The New Esterhazy Quartet performs this Presto Scherzando movement on original instruments. The group was founded in 2006 in the Bay Area. Haydn’s 68 string quartets are at the core of their repertoire. The New Esterházy Quartet, recognized as one of the world's top period-instrument string quartets, presents "The Birth of the String Quartet," performing three quartets: Mozart's Quartet in D, K575, Haydn's String Quartet in C, Op. 20 No. 2, and Boccherini's Quartet in A, Op. 8 No. 6. The members of NEQ are internationally-known period-instrument and chamber music specialists Kati Kyme and Lisa Weiss, violins, violist Anthony Martin, and cellist William Skeen. They're performing tonight, Sept. 28 at 7:30 p.m.


JAMES GALWAY – “Sonata for Flute and Piano – I. Allegro Malinconico” by Francis Poulenc

For many Sacramento concertgoers the annual Faculty, Alumni, and Friends Gala is the highlight of the New Millennium Series. This year’s gala will highlight virtuoso Flautist Laurel Zucker, who will join forces with pianist John Cozza in a performance of Francis Poulenc’s elegant Sonata for Flute and Piano, which was originally premiered by Jean-Pierre Rampal and the composer. Percussionist Daniel Kennedy will also bring his consummate skill and extraordinary musical range to our concert stage. He will play at the Faculty, Friends and Alumni Gala on February 15.
