SUMMARY:DSQ & pianist\, Christopher O'Riley in Camden
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS HERE. \nThis thrilling collaboration between the DaPonte String Quartet and the renowned  pianist\, Christopher O’Riley (also a familiar voice as the former host of NPR’s From the Top) features the piano quintets of Robert Schumann and Erich Korngold. \nWhen he wrote his quintet\, Korngold had yet to make his mark on the Hollywood film industry with soundtracks such as Errol Flynn’s Adventures of Robinhood. This remarkable\, youthfully exuberant work was composed long before he left Vienna.  Its monumental central Adagio is perhaps one of the most hauntingly beautiful pieces of music ever written. \nSchumann’s brilliant masterwork is full of joy and excitement. One of his most celebrated compositions\, it was written in almost a frenzy of creativity\, and dedicated to his wife\, Clara Schumann\, one of the greatest pianists of the 19th century. \nPlease join us for this exciting concert at the new\, state-of-the-art Bay Chamber building in Camden. There is plenty of parking on site. Please note that Bay Chamber is not affiliated with this concert\, and any questions or concerns about the event should be directed to the DaPonte String Quartet Foundation.

We will conclude with a private mini-concert (friends & family invited) of all the groups on Sunday afternoon\, approx 4:00-5:00pm \n\nThe workshop includes eight round robin coaching sessions with all four members of the DaPonte String Quartet. Each ensemble will focus on one movement from a standard piece of the chamber music literature.  There are also several demonstrations of rehearsal techniques\, including topics such as phrasing and intonation. \n\nWe have space for four ensembles and are giving preference to preformed groups of four or more (sextets are really fun!). Unfortunately\, we can’t accommodate pianists at this venue.  If you are interested\, but don’t have a group you regularly play with\, let us know and we can try to match you up with others.  In your application\, list the level of music you’re comfortable playing (Haydn\, Brahms\, Bartok\, Ligeti etc).\n\n\nThanks to a grant from ACMP which helped us to reduce tuition by nearly 30%\, the fee for the workshop is only $225.  There is no food or lodging provided\, but there are lots of eateries within walking distance or a quick drive away. We will have some light refreshments on hand. There are also several hotels in the area if you prefer not to commute. \n\nThe deadline to apply is May 1.  To apply\, send an email to dino@dapontequartet.org with your contact information\, instrument\, a short list of your chamber music experience (pieces you’ve played) and if applicable\, the other members of your group.  One person can submit a group application and serve as the main contact for that group. \n \n\n\n\nWhen you have confirmed your participation with Dino Liva\, please send a check or money order for the total amount to: DaPonte String Quartet Foundation\, PO Box 201\, Freeport\, ME 04032. Please write “Adult workshop” in the memo line. \nWe look forward to working with you! \n\n\n–The DaPonte String Quartet \nThis program was made possible\, in part\, through the support of Associated Chamber Music Players (ACMP)\, an international service organization supporting chamber music for pleasure.Join ACMP – Membership is FREE!
