Greetings, friends.
This newsletter features programming plans and news for the
Peabody Trio, violist Hsin-Yun Huang's chamber music programs, and the
New Century Saxophone Quartet.
I also have an update on the
Horszowski Trio. (Spoiler alert: I announce a new Chamber Music America commission for the Trio, and more.)
Did you miss the last newsletter, featuring the Alexander String Quartet, Miami String Quartet, and Horszowski Trio? You can catch up on that by clicking here:
Or the one on the Voxare String Quartet, the Atlantic Brass Quintet, and guitarist William Kanengiser? You can get that one here:
I look forward to being in touch.

The
Peabody Trio's 2017-2018 programs feature trios of
Mozart,
Schubert,
Schumann, and
Dvořák, as well as German composer
Wolfgang Rihm and Scottish composer
James Macmillan.
They are also pleased to offer
two collaborations.
There is a program with
violist Maria Lambros comprising the two
Mozart piano quartets (plus Schubert's E-flat major trio).
There is a program with
clarinetist Charles Neidich opening with a Dvořák or Schubert trio and concluding with
Messiaen's Quartet for the End of Time.
Here's a link to hear the Peabody Trio:

| New Century Saxophone Quartet |
There are two
New Century Mix programs, which comprise everything from Bach to New Century commissions.
There is a
New Century Fun program that features their signature arrangements of
Gershwin and
Bernstein - and lots more.
There is
New Century Commissions, which includes music of
David Lang,
Michael Torke,
Barbara Kolb, and other composers who have written for NCSQ.
There is
The Art of Fugue, a set of programs featuring Bach's landmark composition (which, I might add, was not specified as being for any particular instrumentation, and just happens to fit the saxophone quartet perfectly).
And finally, New Century is delighted to offer
A New Century Christmas, based on their album featuring arrangements commissioned from thirteen of their favorite composers.
Hear the New Century Saxophone Quartet:

The work, titled
The Night Migrations, will be approximately 20 minutes in length, and is based on a poem by
Louise Glück
of the same title. (Read the poem.)
The Horszowski Trio and violist Masumi Per Rostad have updated the programming plans for their collaboration. Their offerings include all three Brahms quartets, both Fauré quartets, and the Schumann quartet. You can see Horszowski/Rostad plans here. (Or download them here.)
