The South Coast Chamber Music Series (SCCMS) presents a weekend of Beethoven to mark the legendary composer’s 250th birthday. The program for “Beethoven CCL” includes his Second Symphony – for piano trio – as well as his G Major violin and piano sonata of 1803, which honors the traditions of Mozart and Haydn while gently “rocking the boat.” The program closes with a kaleidoscope of emotions in the dramatic and theatrical C Minor Quartet, which demonstrates why Beethoven is truly immortal and forever beloved.
On Saturday, January 25, the Chamber Music performance will take place in Marion at St. Gabriel’s Episcopal Church (124 Front Street). On Sunday, January 26, the venue is in South Dartmouth at St. Peter’s Episcopal Church (351 Elm Street). Both concerts begin at 4:00 pm. Tickets are $20 at the door or pre-purchase online at https://nbsymphony.org/chamber-series-season/.
