King Lear

Much and rightly celebrate Donmar Warehouse production. Followed by Stephen Greenblatt's weak and weakly prepared talk.

Highly recommended.

Orchestra New England


  • Schubert, Overture in C minor, D. 8 lush, lively and harmonically engaging 
  • Bartok, Rumanian Folk Dances 
  • Ives, Largo cantabile: Hymn authoritative interpretation of early Ives; emotionally provocative; ends with opening chord of "My Faith Looks up to Thee" 
  • Elgar, Serenade in E minor, Op 20 Lovely and plainspoken 
  • Copland, Two pieces for Strings Largely unknown, even in original format as quartet 
  • Kuss, Sounds. Distant
