Concertmaster Series: Cathedrals in the Sky

Concertmaster Series: Cathedrals in the Sky at Knoxville Museum of Art

Classical chamber music makes the interplay between a small group of musicians the center of the program. The Knoxville Symphony's Concertmaster Series brings Cathedrals in the Sky to the Knoxville Museum of Art on Thursday, April 8, 2027, at 7:00 PM. If you value repertoire performed by a small ensemble, this Thursday offers a reason to attend.

The program moves from Pablo de Sarasate's Navarra for Two Violins through Roxanna Panufnik's Down the Rabbit Hole and Lucas Richman's Psalm 23, then to Olivier Messiaen's Theme and Variations and Mendelssohn's Piano Trio No. 2 in C minor. The range spans virtuosic showpiece, modern invention, contemplative setting and Romantic drama. Violinists William Shaub and Gordon Tsai join cellist Sarah Senn and pianist Kevin Class. If you're drawn to chamber repertoire that mixes familiar names with less-familiar pieces, this program gives you a reason to spend an evening discovering what holds your attention.

Thursday works well when you want an evening out without waiting for the weekend. Invite a friend who appreciates classical music performed by a small ensemble, or a partner whose idea of Thursday plans includes cultural immersion. The museum gallery and the music give you something specific to look forward to together.
