Today, we define a masterpiece as a creation, done with extraordinary skill, that has received much critical praise; a supreme intellectual and artistic achievement. The Piano Quintet of Dmitri Shostakovich checks all those boxes and more. From the massive Bach-like opening Prelude and Fugue, to the fantastic scherzo, the surprising Intermezzo and the breezy, uplifting Finale, Shostakovich maintains a clarity of texture and form that is nothing short of brilliant.

The earliest serenades were usually sung at night to express love and devotion. This tradition continued through the Baroque and Classical periods, but really reached its pinnacle with the sophisticated multi-movement works of the Romantic era performed for larger audiences.  In Brahms’ Serenade in D, he channels Mozart, Haydn and Schubert, but never sets aside his own Romantic sensibilities. This expansive, jubilant, song-like, somber, stately and galloping piece is contrasted on the program by Carl Nielsen’s brief and humorous Serenata in vano.
