Camerata San Antonio will conclude its concert season May 29 with a performance of Visions & Reflections at 4 p.m. at First Presbyterian Church.
Although serving as the ensemble’s season finale, the concert will also offer audiences a preview of themes that will continue into next season.
According to Artistic Director Ken Freudigman, the program explores works connected to the legacy of Ludwig van Beethoven and examines how later composers responded to his influence.
The performance will open with String Quartet No. 2 by Mieczysław Weinberg, a work written during World War II-era Soviet Russia that Freudigman described as reflecting resilience and expressive clarity.
The program will continue with String Quartet No. 3 by Alfred Schnittke, which incorporates references to Beethoven’s Grosse Fuge alongside musical motifs from other composers.
The concert will conclude with String Quartet in A minor, Op. 13 by Felix Mendelssohn, a composition inspired by Beethoven’s later quartets.
Joining Freudigman on cello will be Laura Scalzo and Matthew Zereck on violin and Emily Freudigman on viola.
Tickets are $20 and may be reserved through Camerata San Antonio or by calling 210-492-9519.
