The Smithsonian Chamber Music Society celebrates its 37th season with an appropriately eclectic repast, balancing familiar masterworks with undeservedly neglected oeuvres perdues.
In March, Archibudelli’s Vera Beths returns with three of the members of The Knights—the innovative Brooklyn-based orchestral collective including violists Nicholas Cords and Max Mandel and violinist and artistic director Colin Jacobsen—for an evening of Mozart quintets.
One hour prior to each program, Kenneth Slowik, SCMS artistic director and recipient of the 2011 Smithsonian Secretary’s Distinguished Research Lecture Award, provides a pre-concert talk, shedding light on the glorious music and the life and times of the featured composers.
