The Modigliani Quartet, hailed by BBC Music Magazine as “one of the greatest string quartets of the last 100 years,” brings its precision and warmth to a program built on contrast. They open with Kurtág’s 12 Microludes, twelve brief, tightly concentrated movements that shift through contrasting musical moods in just a few measures each, then turn to Schumann’s lively First String Quartet, a Romantic masterpiece of deep lyricism and virtuosic energy. Pianist Fabio Bidini, Carol Colburn Grigor Piano Chair, joins them for a vibrant finale of Schumann’s Piano Quintet, a work full of heart that revolutionized the genre by treating piano and strings as equal partners in dialogue.

A late-Classical bassoon concertino by Bernhard Crusell then showcases the instrument’s warm sound and impressive versatility.
