This program traces a path from Classical brilliance to Romantic turmoil. Hummel’s elegant Septet dazzles with its vibrant textures and playful interplay, while Huw Watkins’s Lament explores both the tender and enraging sides of loss. The evening culminates in Brahms’s stormy “Werther” Piano Quartet —a work infused with the emotional intensity of Goethe’s The Sorrows of Young Werther, where passion, restraint, and longing collide.

The musicians performing the program are Marya Martin, flute; James Austin Smith, oboe; David Byrd-Marrow, horn; David McCarroll, violin; Cong Wu, viola; Brannon Cho, cello; Nina Bernat, bass; David Fung, piano; and Shai Wosner, piano.
