Chamber Music Society of SF plays Brahms

Founded in the spring of 2013, the Chamber Music Society of San Francisco was born out of a collective desire to perform the great chamber music repertoire.  Dedicated to bringing these masterworks to diverse audiences, CMSSF is passionate about concertizing in intimate settings, creating close connections between performers and listeners, and cultivating a relationship between music and audiences that extends far beyond the perimeter of the concert hall.CMSSF brings together Bay Area musicians of diverse musical experience.  They can be heard performing with the San Francisco Symphony, San Francisco Opera, San Francisco Chamber Orchestra, Oakland Symphony, Magik*Magik Orchestra, as well as many other chamber ensembles, including early music, jazz, tango, and pop.Founding members Natasha Makhijani, Jory Fankuchen, Clio Tilton and Samsun van Loon came together through their mutual love of the late Beethoven String Quartets.  Forming a core to collaborate with guest artists, highlights of our fourth season include collaboration with premier Bay Area musicians and expansion to the sextet repertoire.More info at www.chambermusicsocietysf.org

Chamber Music Society of San Francisco

A riveting evening of Haydn and Brahms string quartets performed by the Chamber Music Society of San Francisco

Piedmont Center for the Arts

The Chamber Music Society of San Francisco is delighted to bring a thrilling program of Brahms and Haydn to the beautiful and intimate Piedmont Center for the Arts.Program:Haydn String Quartet in G Major op. 76, no. 1Brahms String Quartet in c minor, op. 51, no. 1One of Haydn's most beloved string quartets, op. 76, no.1 is exquisite from start to finish. The first movement is a lyrical and jovial conversation amongst friends, followed by a lusciously serene and meditative second movement. The stillness is gently re-energized by a cheeky dancing third movement and the work is capped with a fiery finale.Brahms' c minor String Quartet is the first of only three extraordinary string quartets that the perfectionist composer would publish in his lifetime. The work opens with a turbulent first movement, oscillating between surging lines of tension and extreme lyricism. The drama takes a breath in the tenderness of the second movement Romanze. The third movement is shrouded in mystery and the roiling fourth movement brings the quartet to a heart-racing finish
