February 23 @ 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm
| This concert continues Pyxis’ conversation with the De Morgans. The couple consistently worked to stretch the boundaries of both social and artistic expectations, so to celebrate this groundbreaking exhibition as it concludes its successful run, the ensemble will play works that also defied expectations. The evening includes Gustav Holst’s In the Bleak Midwinter; selections from an unusual Sonata for Violin and Cello by Maurice Ravel; and Antonín Dvořák’s magnificent “Dumky” piano trio. Dvořák was immensely celebrated in London, and it’s likely that the De Morgans would have heard his concerts. |
