Mainstage Chamber Music Concert: Joel Brennan, Lee Allen, Patricia Shih, Nikita Pogrebnoy & Gahlord Dewald

Discover the world of chamber music, where a small number of instruments can make a massive impact. At the intimate Rolston Recital Hall, trumpeter Joel Brennan, trombonist Lee Allen, violinist Patricia Shih, violist Nikita Pogrebnoy, and double bassist Gahlord Dewald will showcase their technical brilliance as the sun sets over the Rocky Mountains. The musicians are on the faculty of Interplay, an innovative residency program that celebrates the convergence of opera and chamber music, bringing together composers, musicians, singers, stage managers, and more. Chamber music is a form of classical music composed for a modest group of instruments—traditionally, a group that could fit in a palace chamber. More broadly, it includes any art music that is performed by few performers, with one performer to a part. From delicate melodies to passionate themes, experience the rich palette of musical textures that define the genre.
