Chamber Music and Philosophy at Kendall School of Arts
Sunday 2nd May
Music and philosophy returns to Kendall School of Arts with a program of music by Beethoven, Schumann and William Walton. Violinist Goetz Richter and pianist Jeanell Carrigan will be joined by the formidable Ash Quartet from Sydney to present an afternoon of exciting chamber music. Commencing at 2 pm, their performance will be preceded by a philosophical discussion at 1 pm on Modernity and Utopia presented by musician and philosopher Goetz Richter.
The Kendall PhiloMusica series explores music in the context of philosophical ideas and within an informal presentation and discussion. The series is convened by Kendall National Violin Competition Artistic Director Goetz Richter. On May 2, string Quartets by Beethoven and Walton will bookend a performance of Robert Schumann’s Violin Sonata performed by Richter and Carrigan. The philosophical topic of “modernity and utopia” takes its leave from the turbulent and revolutionary nature of the music presented.
