CMNW: Festival Finale: A Journey into the Light

July 24, 2021 @ 7:30 pm

As the grand finale, the Brentano String Quartet and cellist Paul Watkins perform Schubert’s profound Cello Quintet — one of the most inspiring chamber works ever composed.

SCHUBERT String Quintet in C Major, D. 956, Op. 163
