ChamberFest Cleveland presents Season 11 “Lightness of Being” from June 14 – July 1, 2023. Join us for eleven events inspired by the novel “The Unbearable Lightness of Being” by Czech author Milan Kundera.
A vivid, atmospheric piano trio provides a contemporary introduction to the heart of this program: Beethoven’s last completed work literally asks Life’s Big Question (‘Must it be? —It must be!’), and all the grave humility and life-affirming joy realized over a lifetime is distilled to its heartfelt essence. Unknown outside his native Russia, Sergei Tanayev was a great musical architect, master of polyphony and counterpoint, and his colossal, monumental Piano Quintet is truly extraordinary by any standard.
