2:15 PM | Pre-Concert Conversation with Soovin Kim and David Ludwig

3:00 PM | CONCERT I: Viennese Legacy

The festival concludes with a celebration of Vienna’s most accomplished composers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Arnold Schoenberg and Erich Korngold were among the great wave of artists who fled Europe’s wars to settle in the United States. The traditions of the Viennese masters continue to be passed down to young American composers such as Alistair Coleman, an alum of LCCMF’s Young Composer Seminar. The final work of the festival is one of the grandest chamber music pieces in history, Johannes Brahms’s A Major piano quartet.
