Our heartfelt thanks to The Baltimore Sun Arts Critic Tim Smith for the wonderful review of the Series 2012-13 Season Announcement!
Shriver Hall Concert Series assembles another stellar roster for 2012-2013
It's not news that the Shriver Hall Concert Series offers major artists from the classical music arena. Still, the 2012-2013 lineup strikes me as one of the starriest yet.
For keyboard fans, two exceptionally imaginative virtuosos are slated: Marc-Andre Hamelin and Piotr Anderszewski.
The string soloists are nothing to sneeze at, either. Cellist Alban Gerhardt will give a recital, accompanied by pianist Cecile Licad. Violinist Nadja Salerno-Sonnenberg will give a concert with pianist Anne-Marie McDermott and the Parker Quartet.
Speaking of chamber ensemble, two of the best from the younger generation will be …
featured on the series: the Brentano and Pavel Haas quartets.
Next season's baroque concert offers the brilliant Europa Galante, led by violinist Fabio Biondi.
And the annual vocal recital will be offered by the top-notch mezzo Magdalena Kozena, accompanied by a pianist who typically has the spotlight to himself -- the eminent Yefim Bronfman.
Like I said, one the starriest lineups yet.
