Kallos Chamber Music Series | Season Opener: The Open Door

The Open Door traces the first steps of an inward journey—through reflection, awakening, and new beginnings. From Reena Esmail’s meditative Saans to Ravel’s luminous Sonata Posthume and Turina’s lyrical Piano Quartet, the evening culminates in Walton’s bold, expressive Piano Quartet—a celebration of emerging voice and momentum.​
