Follow the Lieder:

The ACO String Quartet focuses on Schubert’s masterful “Death and Maiden” quartet, written after Schubert fell ill. Confronted by death, he mined his own song (Death and the Maiden) written years earlier for material. The quartet is filled with pathos, startling beauty, and bristling energy.

Top Brass

The ACO Brass Quintet returns with a range of music both written, and arranged for brass. A suite from Leonard Bernstein’s indelible West Side Story showcases the full range of expression, lyricism, and power of this virtuoso ensemble. Original works from the brass quintet literature round out the program.
