Ron & Maureen Ashley Oasis Chamber Music Series: Landscapes in Sound

Sunday, July 26 at 5:00 PM & 7:00 PM
Ron & Maureen Ashley Oasis, Incline Village, NV

Join us on a journey across vivid musical terrains, from the brooding Nordic lyricism of Sibelius’s String Trio in G minor to the sweeping colors and expansive horizons of Maria Newman’s Colors of the Desert. The program concludes with Dvořák’s beloved String Quintet No. 3 in E-flat Major, Op. 97 “American,” a radiant work inspired by the composer’s time in the United States. Featuring an extra viola and written a month after his famous “American” String Quartet, the quintet is infused with folk spirit and open-air warmth. Tickets for this concert include a wine and hors d’oeuvres reception.
