Avalon String Quartet in Chicago - Thursday, September 23, 2010 at 7:30 pm
Avalon String Quartet will be joined by Roger Chase (viola) for the following program:

Puccini: Crisantemi for String Quartet
Britten: Three Divertimenti (1936)
Verdi: String Quartet in e minor
Mozart: String Quintet in C Major, K. 515
With Roger Chase, viola

Looking at the composers featured in this concert, one could be forgiven for momentarily thinking he might be looking at a Lyric Opera brochure. Puccini and Verdi are thought of immediately for their operas - their quartet writing feels like an intimate scene lifted from the stage. With more than a dozen operas on diverse libretti to his name, Benjamin Britten was responsible for reviving an English operatic tradition that had lay dormant for over a century.  While Mozart excelled in any genre, a distinctly operatic drama and lyricism infuses all of his writing - the slow movement of this quintet could easily be a coloratura aria.

Englishman Roger Chase is recognized as one of the leading viola soloists and chamber musicians of his generation.  He is on the faculty of the Chicago College of Performing Arts at Roosevelt University.
