Vienna - Maps and Legends 2010 Festival at St. Mark's Episcopal Church/Palo Alto

Cost: music
The summer’s third Concert Program honors the great musical tradition of Vienna, the seat of Western music from the early eighteenth century to the dawn of the twentieth. Vienna was the crucible of the Classical and Romantic periods, fostering the innovations of Joseph Haydn—the father of the Classical style—and forward-looking statements like the Serioso Quartet of Ludwig van Beethoven, Haydn’s prize pupil. Beethoven’s vision for a new direction in music would be realized by the Romantic generation in such masterpieces as Johannes Brahms’s Opus 36 Sextet. Vienna remained the epicenter of the musical world through the early twentieth century, with the iconoclastic Arnold Schoenberg at the helm of the revolutionary Second Viennese School. The program features Schoenberg’s First Chamber Symphony, arranged for chamber ensemble by Second Viennese acolyte Anton Webern. Program: Franz Joseph Haydn (1732–1809) Keyboard Concertino in F Major, Hob. XVIII: F2 (ca. 1767) Ludwig van Beethoven (1770–1827) String Quartet in f minor, op. 95, Serioso (1810–1811) Arnold Schoenberg (1874–1951) Chamber Symphony no. 1, op. 9 (1922; arr. Webern, 1922–1923) Johannes Brahms (1833–1897) Sextet no. 2 in G Major, op. 36 (1864)
