The Lydian String Quartet
Haydn: Op 33#3 “The Bird”
Shostakovich: Unfinished Quartet
Beethoven Op 127 in E Flat
The Lydian String Quartet members are professors of the practice of music at Brandeis
University. During the past 27 years, their exquisite artistry has inspired worldwide
critical acclaim. The quartet's interpretive mastery of such traditional repertoire
as Haydn, Schubert, Beethoven, and Ravel--along with their special flair for contemporary
music--has earned them international accolades, including the prestigious Naumburg
Award for Chamber Music.

Pianist Chad Bowles
Joseph Haydn: Sonata in E Major, Hob.XVI:31
Enrique Granados: Valses Poéticos
Heitor Villa-Lobos: A Prole do Bebê Suite No 1
Franz Liszt: Bénédiction de Dieu dans la solitude
Vincenzo Bellini/Franz Liszt: Réminiscences de Norma
Chad is a master of his instrument and routinely hailed for his infectious enthusiasm
and exacting virtuosity. Equally at home with lesser-known gems, as well as the
standard repertoire, his performances have brought him to cities across the United
States, Canada, and Europe including Toronto, Washington DC, Columbus, Baltimore,
Boston, Philadelphia, Toulouse and Montréal. His many recital appearances as a soloist
and chamber musician have seen him in colleges and universities across the U.S.,
the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C., and the La Gesse Festival in France. His
recitals often feature commentary from the stage, something that his audiences have
responded to very favorably..

Baroque Duo: Audrey Cienniwa on baroque cello and Paul Cienniwa on harpsichord
The program is as yet undecided. Audrey and Paul Cienniwa began playing as a duo
in 1998 after meeting in Brussels as students. Since then, they have performed throughout
New England and regularly in France, earning praise from the newspaper Le Dauphiné
Libéré as “prestigious...magnificent...masterful.” As specialists in historical
performance, their repertoire includes masterworks of the baroque and pre-classical
periods.
Their recording of the Bach Viola da Gamba Sonatas (with violoncello piccolo and
harpsichord) is available on the Whaling City Sound label
