Notes & Reviews:

Currently in its thirty-fourth season, The Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center offers concerts of every instrumentation, style and historical period, at its permanent home in Alice Tully Hall. This new release gives this gifted ensemble an opportunity to shine with these intimate and romantic works. The Octet transcends the chamber genre with its symphonic style, while the Sextet is a showpiece for the piano, and closely resembles a concerto.
