Join us for an evening of two remarkable piano trios. Shostakovich’s Piano Trio No. 1 in C Minor, Op. 8, written when the composer was just seventeen, captures youthful passion and striking lyricism, offering an early glimpse of his unmistakable voice. In contrast, Dvořák’s beloved “Dumky” Trio, Op. 90 unfolds as a series of deeply expressive musical portraits—by turns introspective, heartfelt, and exuberant—rooted in the composer’s Bohemian folk heritage. Together, these works showcase the range of human expression and the lasting artistry of chamber music.

Repertoire:
Shostakovich, Piano Trio no. 1 in C minor, opus 8
Dvorak, Piano Trio no. 4 in E minor, opus 90 “Dumky”
