Music in the Afternoon: Mark Fewer & Friends

Violinist Mark Fewer performs with Chris Whitley in a violin duo by Montreal composer John Rea. With the Thalea Quartet and pianist Jeanie Chung he continues in an afternoon of exhilarating chamber music.  The rhapsodic and expansive Concerto for violin, piano and string quartet by Chausson is matched by a new work for the same instruments by Carmen Braden, a versatile, genre-jumping musician from the Canadian sub-Arctic.  A string quartet by Holocaust victim Erwin Schulhoff completes the program.
