ACMP Listening Club: Exploring Brahms’ Piano Quintet in f minor, Op. 34

About the Lecture

Join ACMP on Sunday, November 10 at 2pm Eastern time for an in-depth exploration of Johannes Brahms’ celebrated Piano Quintet in f minor, Op. 34 with British conductor, composer and educator Peter Fender.

Peter will guide us in learning about the background of this piece and how it fit into the context of Brahms’ life and career, and will do a deep dive into the written score, share his favorite recordings and give insights on interpretation and rehearsal techniques.

The session will last for 2.5 hours (with a break).

During COVID, Peter had produced a regular music appreciation podcast “Masterworks Unwrapped,” delving into great pieces in the orchestral canon. One of his regular fans was the Chair of ACMP’s International Advisory Council, Sean Knox, who recently introduced Peter to ACMP. We look forward to hearing his take on Schubert’s monumental chamber work!

Admission is FREE, but donations are gratefully accepted.
