PCMF: Perfect Fifths

This enchanting evening opens PCMF’s 2024 summer season with pure joy in musical form. The Boccherini Cello Quintet is a Classical-era delight: fun and fresh, balancing gentle tunes (including a famous minuet) with the luxurious heft of lower string sounds. Dvořák’s Romantic quintet for piano and strings radiates grace and warmth, before blossoming into bursts of spontaneous celebration.
