Chameleon Up Close: Schubert, Tower, Schumann (CANCELED)

At its best, chamber music is a conversation between friends, and nowhere is that more apparent than within the piano trio genre, grand canvases filled with intimate expression. Clara Schumann’s under-appreciated gem embodies the drama of the Romantic era with transparency and grace, Joan Tower contemplates the expansive beauty of the Andes, and Schubert, at the end of his life, stretches to the horizon with a monument of the repertoire.
