Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center

It’s safe to say that without the virtuosity and imagination of Ludwig van Beethoven changing the course of music history, many of the most exciting chamber works would simply not exist. In a program that opens with Beethoven’s youthful and daring string trio, a succession of composers follows whose music was indelibly influenced by the master. Johann Nepomuk Hummel was at once Beethoven’s admirer, friend and rival, and his striking and seldom-heard quintet echoes both Beethoven’s creativity and pianistic wizardry. The gentle Schubert lived in Beethoven’s shadow, too shy to approach the great man, yet he did just that through music of incomparable personal transparency. And Felix Mendelssohn, regarded as the greatest musical prodigy of all time, concludes this celebration of Beethoven’s legacy with a sextet of novel design and thrilling brilliance.

The Quartet’s debut album, Blueprinting, featuring new works written for the Aizuri Quartet by five American composers, was nominated for a 2019 GRAMMY Award.  To celebrate the 102nd Anniversary of Women’s Suffrage, as well as Women’s History Month, the four ladies of the Aizuri String Quartet will perform a program of all-female composers dating from Hildegard von Bingen.
