Five musicians from Oakville and surrounding area will perform Dvorak's passionate String Quintet in G Major, Op. 77. The work is a mixture of traditional writing in the first movement, an energetic Bohemian Scherzo, subdued sections, contrasting rhythms and moods, delicate interplay between the instruments, gentle, lyrical and meditative passages. The program is completed by Boccherini's most famous work: his Quintet in E Major. As soon as you hear the minuet you will be transported into a world of sublime elegance and refinement. Single tickets cost $25 for adults, $15 for students and seniors and $5 for youths 15 and under. Subscriptions for all five concerts cost $100 for adults, $60 for students and seniors and $20 for youths 15 and under. Mini subscriptions to three concerts cost $65 for adults, $40 for students and seniors and $12 for youths 15 and under. The ensemble is offering a buy two, get three subscription program. This means when you buy two identical subscriptions or mini-subscriptions, you obtain a third identical one for free. Tickets are available at 905-825-9740, info@oakville-ensemble.ca and at the door on concert night. For more information, visit www.oakville-ensemble.ca.
