The Mae Ruth Swanson Memorial Concert

On Tuesday, April 17, 2018, Oklahoma City’s Brightmusic Chamber Ensemble will present the fifth concert of its 2017-18 season, “Old and New.”   The “old” is Franz Schubert’s perennially-popular “Trout” quintet, written nearly 100 years ago when Schubert was only 22.  The “new” is a World Premier performance of a striking work by Oklahoma City composer Samuel Magrill, commissioned by Brightmusic.   The quartet by Saint-Saëns, falling somewhere in between, was the composer’s second and final foray into the genre.

The works on the program are:
  • Samuel Magrill, Five Bagatelles for Flute, Violin, Cello & Piano
    Commissioned by Brightmusic for World Premier Performance 
  • Camille Saint-Saëns, Piano Quartet No. 2 in B-flat major, op. 41 (for piano, violin, viola & cello)
  • Franz  Schubert, Piano Quintet in A major, D. 667 The “Trout” (for piano, violin, viola, cello & double bass)
Musicians appearing:
Gregory Lee (violin), Mark Neumann (viola), Jonathan Ruck (cello), George Speed (double bass), Mira Magrill (flute), Amy I-Lin Cheng (piano), and Samuel Magrill (piano)

The performance will take place at 7:30 pm on Tuesday, April 17 at St. Paul’s Cathedral, 127 NW 7th Street (at Robinson).  Individual concert admission is $20 per ticket.  Children, students and active-duty military personnel are admitted free with ID.  More information about this concert is available on our website, www.brightmusic.org.
