For over 60 years, the Musicians from Marlboro touring program has brought memorable performances from Vermont’s legendary chamber music school and festival to national audiences. The first of three Marlboro touring ensembles this season is led by founding and former first violinist of the Doric Quartet, Alex Redington, and Jonathan Leibovitz, an emerging clarinetist hailed for his “ability to mesmerize the listener in everything he does” (BBC Music Magazine) . At the heart of this touring program is music by two former Marlboro composers in residence: Brett Dean and Kaija Saariaho. The evening culminates with Mozart’s beloved Clarinet Quintet, a piece which gloriously blends operatic melodies for the clarinet with intimate string writing. Program: Jonathan Leibovitz, clarinet ; Leo Appel, violin ; Alex Redington, violin ; Samuel Rosenthal, viola ; Elena Ariza, cello Haydn : String Quartet in B Minor, Op. 33, No. 1 Dean : String Quartet No. 3, Hidden Agendas Saariaho : Aure Mozart : Clarinet Quintet in A Major, K. 581
