Kimbell Art Museum
Overview
Robert Spano himself, the FWSO's Music Director and an accomplished pianist, launches the Kimbell Chamber Series with a stirring song cycle of his own composition, the Sonnets to Orpheus, with Grammy Award-winning mezzo-soprano Kelley O'Connor – the artist for whom the song cycle was written! Enjoy a more intimate FWSO concert experience as Spano is joined by members of the orchestra for the Brahms' Piano Quintet in F Minor, the "crown of his chamber music," while Debussy's ethereal Sonata for Flute, Viola, and Harp balances the program exquisitely.
