Only one of the founding members remains\, the cellist András Fejér\, but the ensemble maintains a stellar performance standard. “The Takács Quartet keeps evolving as the membership shifts and turns over\,” the San Francisco Chronicle wrote\, “but the fundamental qualities of this invaluable ensemble — a combination of worldly-wise intensity and expressive fervor – seem to remain constant.” The quartet will perform Haydn’s Quartet in F Minor Op. 20\, No. 5\, Samuel Coleridge-Taylor’s Fantasiestucke and Dvořák’s Quartet in G Major Op. 106.[/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”black”][vc_column_text] \nProgram\nEdward Dusinberre\, violin\nHarumi Rhodes\, violin\nRichard O’Neill \, viola\nAndrás Fejér\, cello \nHAYDN  Quartet in F minor\, Op.20\, No.5\nSAMUEL COLERIDGE TAYLOR  Fantasiestucke\nINTERMISSION\nDVORAK  String Quartet in G major\, Op.106[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row] URL:https://kleinhansbuffalo.org/event/buffalo-chamber-music-society-takacs-quartet/ LOCATION:Mary Seaton Room\, 3 Symphony Circle\, Buffalo\, 14201\, United States CATEGORIES:Buffalo Chamber Music Society,Featured ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://kleinhansbuffalo.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2021/06/Untitled-design-17.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20220403T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20220403T150000 DTSTAMP:20260507T212233 CREATED:20210607T154541Z LAST-MODIFIED:20211119T175244Z UID:3726-1648998000-1648998000@kleinhansbuffalo.org SUMMARY:Buffalo Chamber Music Society | Nathan Lee\, piano DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] \nThis event has been rescheduled from its original Sunday\, November 14\, 2021 performance date.\nThe Buffalo Chamber Music Society presents pianist Nathan Lee at Kleinhans Music Hall. \nAlthough still a student\, the pianist Nathan Lee has already performed as soloist with some of the world’s leading orchestra.

This also has consequences for audiences\, which from one concert to the next have to be prepared for all eventualities: “A work really develops only in a live performance\,” the quartet says. “That is ‘the real thing’\, because we ourselves never know what will happen. On the stage\, all imitation disappears\, and you automatically become honest with yourself. Then you can create a bond with the audience – communicate with it in music.” This live situation will gain an added energy in the near future: Sabine Meyer\, Menahem Pressler\, Andreas Ottensamer and Anna Lucia Richter are among the quartet’s current partners. ​[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row] URL:https://kleinhansbuffalo.org/event/schumann-quartet/ LOCATION:Mary Seaton Room\, 3 Symphony Circle\, Buffalo\, 14201\, United States CATEGORIES:Buffalo Chamber Music Society ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://kleinhansbuffalo.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2021/06/Untitled-design-10.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20211019T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20211019T200000 DTSTAMP:20260507T212233 CREATED:20210602T002313Z LAST-MODIFIED:20211014T133107Z UID:3689-1634673600-1634673600@kleinhansbuffalo.org SUMMARY:Buffalo Chamber Music Society | Belcea Quartet DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The Buffalo Chamber Music Society presents the Belcea Quartet at Kleinhans Music Hall. \nOur season opens with the Belcea Quartet\, a distinguished British ensemble founded by students at the Royal College of Music.

These musicians are not confined by traditional boundaries. It is perhaps the very fact of their diverse cultural backgrounds that is behind their dynamic and free interpretative style. Founded at the Royal College of Music in London in 1994\, the quartet is based in Great Britain. However\, the Romanian violinist Corina Belcea and the Polish violist Krzysztof Chorzelski\, the two founder members\, bring a very different artistic provenance to the ensemble while drawing from the best traditions of string quartet playing received from the quartet’s mentors: the members of the Alban Berg and Amadeus Quartets. This spectrum is extended by the French musicians Axel Schacher (violin) and Antoine Lederlin (violoncello). The Belcea Quartet blends its diverse influences into a common musical language. ​[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row] URL:https://kleinhansbuffalo.org/event/belcea-quartet/ LOCATION:Mary Seaton Room\, 3 Symphony Circle\, Buffalo\, 14201\, United States CATEGORIES:Buffalo Chamber Music Society,Featured ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://kleinhansbuffalo.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2021/06/Untitled-design-9.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20210919T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20210919T150000 DTSTAMP:20260507T212233 CREATED:20210607T154219Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210817T164723Z UID:3723-1632063600-1632063600@kleinhansbuffalo.org SUMMARY:Buffalo Chamber Music Society | Benjamin Baker\, violin DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The Buffalo Chamber Music Society presents violinist Benjamin Baker at Kleinhans Music Hall. \nThe violinist Benjamin Baker already has a busy concert schedule\, with concerto\, recital and chamber performances around the world.
