Music of Resistance, Resilience and Hope
November 17 @ 3:00 pm
The Concord Chamber Music Society (CCMS) will present its first concert in Lexington during its celebratory 25th Anniversary Season, in Maxwell Hall at the Scottish Rite Masonic Museum. Founded in 2000 by Boston Symphony Orchestra Violinist Wendy Putnam, the Concord Chamber Music Society has come to be known and appreciated for providing unique opportunities to experience world-class chamber music in intriguing, personal, and multi-faceted ways. Artists often share spontaneous insights about the music from the stage, and audience members enjoy interacting with musicians after the concerts.
The CCMS concert on November 17th features renowned pianist and composer Marc-André Hamelin, joined by Violinists Wendy Putnam and Lucia Lin, Violist Kim Kashkashian and Cellist Cristine Lee. Known worldwide for his unrivaled blend of consummate musicianship and brilliant technique, Hamelin has been honored with multiple Juno Awards and Grammy nominations throughout his career.
The program will include Ravel’s Sonata for Violin and Cello, the piano quartet Concordance by Yehudi Wyner, and Hamelin’s own Piano Quintet, Nowhere Fast.
