Top Notch!

by Jeff Chappell (11/10/21)

What a great concert, on so many levels—repertoire, style, virtuosity, and intensity, to name a few. It was so wonderful to hear Karen Kevra’s glowing sound and to sense her characteristic presence and concentration in this nonpareil performance of Gluck’s “Minuet and Dance of the Blessed Spirits”. If Hailstorck’s “Swing Low, Sweet Chariot” Quartet had been a painting, it would have been Cubist—looking at the powerful but gentle original melody from all possible angles, at times vigorous and energetic, at times serene and abstract. And Beethoven’s Quartet Opus 132 shows us again that he was a builder of monuments, taking listeners into immense territories of sound that compel us to drop all ideas and expectations about music and just be carried along by his genius. The Borromeo Quartet met and surpassed every challenge of this demanding program in triumph. Congratulations to Capital City Concerts for bringing this experience to your fortunate audience!

Thank you for ironing out the technological problems so I could see and hear this from home. Well worth waiting for.
