A Piano Escapade 123

SYNOPSIS

Things have just not been the same for the Concordia Quartet ever since one of their violinists went on a little sojourn. She’ll be back soon, but for now, there’s a gaping violin-shaped hole in the quartet’s heart!

There’s plenty of hemming and hawing in the quartet’s living room, but one afternoon, the remaining members hear the ghost of a faraway sound… is that a tinkling of a piano, or are they just dreaming?

The Concordia Quartet are still four musicians, but this time, they are on a piano escapade! Join them as they present selections from the less-often-explored genre of the piano quartet, with selected movements from classics such as Mozart’s and Felix Mendelssohn’s first piano quartets, as well as Fauré’s masterful and incandescent Piano Quartet No. 1.
