"Passionate, detailed music-making is a hallmark of Marlboro performances." The New York TimesEach Marlboro Music touring program is formed around summer performances that co-artistic directors Mitsuko Uchida and Jonathan Biss feel achieved a particular dynamism.
Schubert‘s beloved Ave Maria will be heard alongside its more rarely performed companion songs from his German setting of Sir Walter Scott’s Lady of the Lake. Literary allusions continue with Janáček‘s bristling String Quartet No. 1, Kreutzer Sonata, taking after the Tolstoy novella of the same name. The performance concludes with Schumann‘s String Quartet in A Minor, Op. 41, No. 1, composed in the spring of his incredible “chamber music year.”
