The BROADcast Concert Series presents one of Pittsburgh’s top chamber ensembles, Academy String Quartet, for a special concert titled "Domestic and Imported Lyricism."On the imported side we have the famous Haydn Serenade - not actually written by Haydn - put up alongside a gorgeous songful slow movement, genuine Haydn, as part of his String Quartet Opus 9, #2.
Lyric for Strings by American composer George Walker is set side-by-side with the more famous Adagio for Strings by Walker’s friend Samuel Barber, in its original form as the middle movement of Barber’s String Quartet.
As a hybrid of the home-grown and imported, and in the verbal sense of lyricism, we have the poetry of the beloved children’s book Madeline, set in Paris, with accompanying music by American musician Elaine Fine.
Admission is Free, and donations are appreciated.
