Boston Symphony Chamber Players | All-MOZART Program

Boston Symphony Chamber Players Inon Barnatan, Piano Divertimento for string trio, K.563      intermission Sonata in C for flute and piano, K.14 Quintet in E-flat for Piano and Winds, K.45

The Boston Symphony Chamber Players leans into the intimacy, lightness, and intricacy of Mozart’s chamber music. The cheery tunefulness of the Divertimento for string trio, K.563, Mozart's only completed string trio, blends sonata and serenade forms, illustrating Mozart's mastery of counterpoint and variation, with each instrument given an equal voice. The Quintet for Piano and Winds, K.452, which Mozart himself declared one of his finest works, showcases his evolving approach to the use of woodwinds in his music from supporting players to main characters.
