Pegasus: the Orchestra returns to the Parrish for an intimate program focused on Rachmaninoff’s and Schubert’s Vocal and Chamber Masterpieces. 2007 Tchaikovsky International Competition Gold Medalist, Sergey Antonov opens the concert with Rachmaninoff’s “Vocalise” arranged for cello and piano, followed by rising star, soprano Elisa Sunshine performing two art songs of Rachmaninoff. The first half closes with Rachmaninoff’s powerful Trio Elegiaque No.1.
The second half opens with soprano Elisa Sunshine performing five selections from Schubert’s lieder arranged by Karén Hakobyan for Piano and String Quartet finishing the set with Schubert’s famous lieder “Die Forelle” (“The Trout”). Schubert used “The Trout” lieder as the basis of set of variations of the 4th movement of his Piano Quintet, which hence earned its nickname “The Trout”. Pegasus’s String Principals explore this fascinating connection by closing the program with artistic director Karén Hakobyan at the piano with Schubert’s monumental Piano Quintet in A Major, D. 667 “The Trout”.

Elisa Sunshine, soprano/guest artist
