DEAR
FRIENDS//
Welcome
We have a tremendous 2014 Summer Festival in store, with worldclass artists and masterpieces both familiar and rare.
We will be performing Stravinsky’s revolutionary masterpiece
The Soldier’s Tale in its entirety on July 11th, an event not to be missed.
Our mini vocal festival July 18-23 will offer beloved works such as
Brahms’ charming Liebeslieder Waltzes and Vaughan Williams’
poignant On Wenlock Edge.
This is our eighth season that the Commissioning Club has brought a
brand new piece to life. This year we’re thrilled to present the premiere,
on July 14, of a piano trio by one of America’s most accomplished young
composers, Derek Bermel.
Other highlights include Schubert’s Octet, both of Mendelssohn’s
glorious Piano Trios, two Brahms Piano Quartets, and Tchaikovsky’s
epic Piano Trio.
We look forward to seeing you at Nordstrom Recital Hall in July for
another summer of glorious music!

Divertimento for String Trio, Hob. V:8
Stephen Rose, Jonathan Vinocour, Ronald Thomas
Are there any pieces that you’re particularly looking
forward to playing this summer?
I’m very much looking forward to playing the Vaughan
Williams Quintet (July 16). It’s one of the few pieces
that I’ve actually recommended to the festival, and
I’m so happy that James has programmed it! It’s an
early work of Vaughan Williams’ in which he hasn’t
quite established his own characteristic style, but the
work is brilliantly crafted and full of energy and great
melodies.

You’re taking part in the premiere of Derek Bermel’s
Piano Trio (July 14). What is it like to prepare a brand
new piece?
Working with the unknown is always challenging and
exciting! No matter how much time I spend studying
the cello part and complete score, a new piece always
feels foreign to me until I actually get the chance
to read it through with the other musicians. At the
same time, taking part in a world premiere typically
means getting to work with the composer, which I find
illuminating. Even though so many indications of mood
and character can be written into the music, only the
composer her/himself can tell the performers about
the real intentions that drove the composition.
JEAN SIBELIUS
“It’s almost miraculous to achieve this...
with...musicians who don’t regularly
play together. [The] performance drew
a sustained ovation from the audience.”
