The centerpiece of the evening is Johannes Brahms’s iconic Piano Trio in B major, a work that bears the unique markings of both the young and old Brahms, written and revised over thirty years across his lifetime. The performance repertoire features percussionist Ted Atkatz, pianist Audrey Andrist, violinist Kevin Kumar, and cellist Amy Sue Barston.
