Charlottesville Chamber Music Festival Presents: Festival Concert II

The Charlottesville Chamber Music Festival, which draws outstanding musicians from North America and abroad every September, celebrates its 26th season with a series of concerts from September 7 to 20, 2025.
The 2025 Charlottesville Chamber Music Festival is full of color from around the world, from classic pieces by Schubert, Rachmaninov, and Brahms, to the rhythms of Latin America, and Stravinsky’s theatrical L’Histoire du soldat, and so much more. Playing music is telling stories, the expression of culture, the sound of a place, sometimes a place left behind. It is memories, the expression of emotions deep inside and ones to be wildly danced and celebrated.
In this program, Brazilian pianist Cristian Budu, American violinist Erin Keefe, Iranian-American violist Muriel Razavi, and Finnish clarinetist (and world-famous conductor) Osmo Vänskä join Festival returning musicians performing works by Eugène Ysaÿe and Lili Boulanger, as well as two major pieces from the classical repertoire – Schubert’s tuneful trio The Shepherd on the Rock and Brahms’ stunning Piano Quartet in G minor, Op. 25.
