Enjoy a musical evening of world-class chamber music at the Icon Museum and Study Center with a special concert performed by Worcester Chamber Music Society musicians Krista Buckland Reisner (violin), Mark Berger (viola), Joshua Gordon (cello), and Randall Hodgkinson (piano).

Martinů’s Three Madrigals are a complex blend of the English madrigals and energetic Bohemian and Moravian folk music that he loved. Beethoven’s cello sonata, written after a three-year hiatus from composition, marked a radical stylistic departure from his earlier works and ushered in his late style. Saint- Saëns’ quartet is rhythmically dynamic, jaunty in tone, energetic, and exuberant.
