Description: The young musicians of Ensemble ACJW--all of whom are fellows or alumni of The Academy's postgraduate program--open their Weill Recital Hall series this season with a concert that includes a chamber-music favorite by Tchaikovsky. While at work in Florence on his opera Queen of Spades in 1890, Tchaikovsky wrote out a melody and put it aside; back in St. Petersburg, he used that tune in the splendid slow movement of his sextet Souvenir de Florence.
Venue Description: Carnegie Hall, renowned universally as one of the most prestigious venues in the US for classical and popular music, distinguished by its beauty, history and majestic acoustics, brings extraordinary music and musicians to its three stages year-round. In addition to hosting classical music and symphony performances, vocal recitals, music festivals, and multicultural world music, Carnegie Hall provides education programs and fosters the future of music through the cultivation of new works, artists, and audiences.
