Come hear the exceptionally gifted young musicians of the Kronberg Academy, a unique international program known for launching the careers of some of today’s most exciting string players and pianists. In addition to works composed by Shulamit Ran and Rebecca Clarke, there’s also the warm lyricism of Bruch’s late Romance, Bartók’s Hungarian folk-inflected Rhapsody, and music by two great Rumanian composers, Enescu and Ysaÿe—including the latter composer’s energetic and technically spectacular “Ballade” Sonata.
