SUMMARY:Megan Moore\, mezzo-soprano\, with Francesco Barfoed
DESCRIPTION:Megan Moore had a busy opera season in 2024\, appearing as Donna Elvira in “Don Giovanni” with San Diego Opera\, as Rosina in “The Barber of Seville” with Seattle Opera and as Sesto in “Julius Caesar” with Opera Theater of Saint Louis.

SUMMARY:Pacifica Quartet with Orion Weiss\, piano
DESCRIPTION:Recognized for its virtuosity\, exuberant performance style\, and sometimes daring repertory choices\, the Pacifica Quartet has gained international stature as one of the finest chamber ensembles performing today. The quartet was nominated for Grammy Awards multiple times and won in January 2021 for their album Contemporary Voices. \nNow in residence at Indiana University’s Jacobs School of Music\, the Quartet held that same position at the Metropolitan Museum of Art from 2009 to 2012. In 2009 it received the Grammy Award for Best Chamber Music Performance. \nOrion Weiss is one of the most sought-after soloists in his generation of young American musicians. The Washington Post wrote\, “Weiss has both powerful technique and exceptional insight\, and brought an almost sculptural presence and weight to the music.” \nHe has performed with the major American orchestras\, including the Chicago Symphony\, Boston Symphony\, Los Angeles Philharmonic\, and New York Philharmonic. His deeply felt and exceptionally crafted performances go far beyond his technical mastery and have won him worldwide acclaim. Weiss’s impressive list of awards includesthe Gilmore Young Artist Award\, an Avery Fisher Career Grant\, the Gina Bachauer Scholarship at the Juilliard School and the Mieczyslaw Munz Scholarship. \nThe Pacifica Quartet and Orion Weiss are planning the following program:\nFlorence Price: String Quartet no. 1 in G major\nSergei Prokofiev: String Quartet no. 2 in F Major\nIntermission\nAntonin Dvořák: Piano Quintet No. 2 in A Major\, Op. 81

SUMMARY:Jerusalem Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Alexander Pavlovsky\, violin\nSergei Bresler\, violin\nOri Kam\, viola\nKyril Zlotnikov\, violoncello \n“Passion\, precision\, warmth\, a gold blend: these are the trademarks of this excellent Israeli string quartet.”  \nSuch was the New York Times’ impression of the Jerusalem Quartet. Since the ensemble’s founding in 1993 and subsequent 1996 debut\, the four Israeli musicians have embarked on a journey of growth and maturation. This experience has resulted in a wide repertoire and stunning depth of expression\, which carries on the string quartet tradition in a unique manner. The ensemble has found its core in a warm\, full\, human sound and an egalitarian balance between high and low voices. This approach allows the Quartet to maintain a healthy relationship between individual expression and a transparent and respectful presentation of the composer’s work. It is also the drive and motivation for the continuing refinement of its interpretations of the classical repertoire as well as exploration of new epochs. \nThe Jerusalem Quartet is a regular and beloved guest on the world’s great concert stages. With regular bi-annual visits to North America\, the Quartet has performed in cities such as New York\, Chicago\, Los Angeles\, Philadelphia\, Washington\, and Cleveland as well as in the Ravinia Festival.  In Europe\, they enjoy an enthusiastic reception with regular appearances in London’s Wigmore hall\, Tonhalle Zürich\, Munich Herkulessaal\, Theatre des Champs-Elysées\, as well as special guest performances at the Auditorium du Louvre Paris\, the Elbphilharmonie Hamburg and festivals such as Salzburg\, Verbier\, Schleswig-Holstein\, Schubertiade Schwarzenberg\, Rheingau\, Saint Petersburg White Nights and many others. \nThe Jerusalem Quartet’s recordings for the label Harmonia Mundi have been honored with numerous awards such as the Diapason d’Or and the BBC Music Magazine Award for chamber music.  In 2019\, the Quartet released a unique album exploring Jewish music in Central Europe between the wars and its far-reaching influence. The recording featured the Quartet with Israeli soprano Hila Baggio performing a collection of Yiddish Cabaret songs from 1920s Warsaw\, arranged by composer Leonid Desyatnikov\, as well as works by Schulhoff and Korngold. The second installment of their Bartok quartet recording was released in 2020. \nIn the 2021-22 season\, the Jerusalem Quartet will return to North America for two tours\, including concerts in New York\, Toronto\, San Francisco\, Portland\, and Seattle\, among many other cities. After a tremendously successful collaboration in 2018-19\, the Quartet will also reunite this season with Pinchas Zukerman and Amanda Forsyth for a limited number of sextet concerts. In spring 2022\, the Quartet’s Yiddish Cabaret program will make its North American debut with a performance at the Vancouver Recital Society. Additional highlights for the season include a Beethoven Cycle at Wigmore Hall in London\, and a return to the Quartet Biennales in Paris\, Amsterdam\, and Lisbon. \nThe following program is planned. \n\nMendelssohn:  Quartet in E-Minor\, Op. 44\, No. 2\nWebern:  Langsamer Satz\nTchaikovsky:  Quartet No 1 in D-Major\, Op. 11
