Faculty String Ensemble — Rush Hour Concert
Friday, April 5, 2024 · 5 - 6 PM
Come and join us after work for a rush-hour concert when UMBC string faculty gather forces to present iconic string repertoire! Of the abundant string quintets that Luigi Boccherini wrote, the Quintet in D major, Op. 40 No. 2 (G. 341) is one of the most renowned, with the exciting Fandango dance in the final movement. The quintet will be followed by Anton Dvořák‘s String Quartet No. 12 in F Major, Op. 96 “American,” one of the composer’s most beloved and celebrated chamber works.
The Faculty String Ensemble is:
Airi Yoshioka, violin
Nicholas Currie, violin
Renate Falkner, viola
Gita Ladd, cello
Juan Sebastián Delgado, cello
