Reflections in Music: Opus One

A composer’s Opus 1 is a declaration. It is a moment of arrival, when a composer steps forward and says, “This is who I am.”
About this Event

This Reflections in Music program explores the first published works of major composers. From Beethoven’s assured early chamber writing and Paganini’s brilliant self-portrait as a violin virtuoso, to Rachmaninoff’s expansive lyricism and Alban Berg’s late-Romantic intensity on the verge of breaking through into modernism, each work reveals a composer defining a public voice.

The program also includes first published works by Bach and Vivaldi, as well as Bruce Wolosoff’s own first opus, the piano trio Bodhisattva. The Washington Post wrote that the work, “drawing on the starkness of Beethoven’s late quartet language and the sorrowful language of the blues, is a moving, well-crafted piece that offers accessibility without being simple-minded.”

Throughout the evening, Wolosoff introduces the music with his signature spoken commentary. The performers for this program are violinists Max Tan and Deborah Buck, cellist Amy Barston, with Bruce Wolosoff on piano.
