Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival

QUARTET FOR THE END OF TIME

Description

Pianist Kirill Gerstein, violinist Leila Josefowicz, cellist Paul Watkins, and clarinetist Carol McGonnell perform Messiaen’s transcendent Quartet for the End of Time—which the composer wrote during World War II while being held in captivity—and Ms. McGonnell performs another standout 20th-century work: Stockhausen’s In Freundschaft. Ms. McGonnell and Mr. Gerstein also join forces with violist Paul Neubauer for Mozart’s charming and innovative Kegelstatt Trio.
