Join the Apollo Chamber Players as they explore and highlight the distinct ethnic and folk-inspired
music traditions of various regions and cultures of the globe. Enjoy the Spanish flare of Sarasate's 'Navarra' violin
duo, the spellbinding virtuosity of Bazzini's 'Round of the Goblins,' the expressive elegance of Debussy's violin sonata,
and the alluring titillation of Dvorak's famed Piano Quintet in A Major, Op. 81. Showcased on the program will be a
set of unique and never-before-heard transcriptions of folk melodies and songs from Greece, America (Appalachia), and Venezuela,
as well as an exclusive premiere presentation of the 'Lost' Mozart work, found by accident in the archives of a French library!
