FWC MUSIC SECTION 2024 Celebrates LIFE with great MUSIC, FELLOWSHIP, KINDNESS, and LOVE

 

The last in the Series of

THE H. J. BRUMAN Summer Chamber Music Festival (August 8th 2024)

ensemble132 brought us wonderful music offerings in terms of the program and performance

Violinist Maria Ioudenitch, Zachary Mowitz, cello, and Zhanbo Zheng, violinist

The Program included works by Hungarian composers E. Dohnanyi (1877-1960), and Z. Kodaly (1882-1967). The second part included a rarely heard piece by a French composer Jean Cras (1879-1932). Here are the snippets from the performance. Such a treat to listen to all four recitals, BRAVO!!

Serenade for Strings by Erno Dohnanyi


String Trio by Jean Cras

Special THANK YOU note goes to our FWC Music Section Members 
who attended many of the BRUMAN concerts

CELLO and PIANO RECITAL was the third recital in 

The Henry J. BRUMAN Summer Chamber Music Festival

The Program included well known composers and often performed pieces on various Los Angeles concert stages. However, like always in the BRUMAN series of chamber music, some of the pieces by Haydn (1732-1809) or Beethoven (1770-18270 are not well known to the general music audiences. 

Today's concert, August 6th, featured two outstanding chamber music artists, cellist Jennifer Kloetzel and pianist Robert Koenig. Here are several snippets of their performance: 

 Joseph Haydn Divertimento in D (arranged by Piatigorsky for Cello & Piano).


Ms. Kloetzel, a graduate of the Juilliard School and Fulbright Scholar, is known for her elegant playing and vibrant tone. She gave informative introductions to each of the composers on the Program.


Who has not heard various renditions of Hungarian rhapsodies, based on well known Hungarian folk tunes and polyrhythmic structures? Yes, we remember some of Liszt's and pieces by Brahms. Another Hungarian composer, David Popper (1843-1913) did his own renditions. 


See you at the upcoming concert
