We had a great time introducing two rarely-heard chamber works to the enthusiastic OHSU Auditorium audience during the noon-hour today.  The OHSU Auditorium is one of our favorite venues to play in the city, and we’re so thankful to Mark Kemball and Susan Smith for asking us to play on the series for the second straight season!

Next comes our piano quartet concert on the Camerata Northwest series up in Seattle on March 21st, featuring the Ravel Duo for violin and cello, the Vieuxtemps Elegie for Viola and Piano, and the Saint-Saëns Piano Quartet; and our quartet concert at the Salem Camerata Musica series at the Salem Public Library on April 26th, featuring the fierce and wonderful Fourth Quartet by Bela Bartok!

We’re also waiting to see if we’ll be performing on this year’s Oregon Symphony Evelyn Nagel Donor Concert at the Newmark Theater on March 31st – stay tuned for that information.

Violinist Sarah Roth has taken a leave of absence for this season, and we’re pleased to welcome Fumino Ando as her able replacement for this season.  I don’t know if she realizes what she’s in for, but we’re glad to have her!

Thanks to all of you who came out to the OHSU Auditorium last Wednesday.  It was a very successful concert and we had a great time playing for you!  Here’s more about living with Janacek.

We’re playing the Janacek for Steven Tenenbom, who is the violist with the Orion Quartet, on Monday.  It’ll be great to get a coaching with such a great musician.  I’ll post an update about how it went as time allows..
