Johannes Brahms String Sextet No. 1 in B-flat
Bask in the brilliant light of strings in this expressive chamber concert curated by SLSO violists Chris Tantillo and Shannon Williams. Brahms’ dazzling, soulful String Sextet showcases the boldness of a young composer on the rise while works by José Elizando and Ralph Vaughan Williams convey dreamy, colorful landscapes, and Dobrinka Tabakova is inspired by the particles that come together to create pure, powerful light.
