Our final week begins with a composer who lived through the tumultuous times of the French Revolution before becoming the first Professor of Flute at the Paris Conservatory. A prolific composer, François Devienne wrote over three hundred works for chamber winds, including the Bassoon Quartet in F Major which fully engages the Classical tendencies of his day. Jennifer Higdon is one of the most important voices of our time, and her “Love Sweet” literally adds a voice to our season with songs that chart the path of a relationship. We end Summerfest with a composer regularly on our concerts, Antonín Dvořák. As with Mozart, Dvořák composed the String Quintet in G Major, op. 77 as he was on the cusp of his mature style and worldwide recognition. It is a fitting end to our summer and a reminder of how everything comes in its own time.
