Beethoven and Andrée
Saturday, Apr 6, 2024 from 4:00 PM to 5:30 PM - English
Beethoven Piano Trio No. 1 in E-flat major, Op. 1 No. 1 (1795) and Andree Piano Trio #2 in G minor (1877).
Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827) was a German composer and pianist. Beethoven remains one of the most admired composers in the history of Western music. Despite the Op. 1 designation, these trios were not Beethoven's first published compositions. Clearly he recognized the Op. 1 compositions as the earliest ones he had produced that were substantial enough (and marketable enough) to fill out a first major publication to introduce his style of writing to the musical public.
Elfrida Andree (1841-1929), was a Swedish organist, composer, and conductor. An activist in the Swedish women's movement, she was one of the first female organists to be officially appointed in Scandinavia. She began work in Stockholm in 1861 and became the organist at Gothenburg Cathedral in 1867, where she remained the organist until her death. In 1897 she was named leader of the Gothenburg Workers Institute Concerts, establishing her reputation as the first Swedish woman to conduct a symphony orchestra. For her services, she was elected to the Royal Swedish Academy of Music.

Mid-Century Modern - Church of the LIttle Flower
Friday, Apr 26, 2024 from 8:00 PM to 9:30 PM - Other
James K. Bass, Conductor
Furniture or architecture might come to mind when one hears the phrase mid-century modern, but the creative style also impacted the music of the time. Inspired by rapid technological advancements and a post-war world, artists in the mid-20th century strove to predict and create the art of the future. Composers like Arnold Schoenberg experimented with new sounds and compositional techniques. At the same time, others like Alan Hovhaness and Samuel Barber returned to styles of the past with new understanding. You'll likely discover a mid-century work you've never heard before on this program for a cappella chorus.
Join us for a Pre-Concert Conversation 1 hour before the concert with Dr. Brad Diamond, tenor!
