Hailed as “the classical group that does it all” Frisson melds technical tradition and genre-bending innovation to create just what their French eponym inspires:  “a shiver or a thrill, a sudden feeling of excitement.” Joining Patrick Hopkins (cello), Avi Nagin (violin) and Chieh-Fan Yiu (viola) are virtuoso oboist Tom Gallant and pianist Marika Bournaki who The Huffington Post described as “the Celine Dion of Classical” for her dazzling vivacity. www.frissonensemble.com

Frisson: Blending Tradition and Innovation in Classical Music

Frisson features some of today’s brightest stars of classical music and, in just a few seasons, has become one of the most popular chamber ensembles in America. The group brings together emerging young artists and distinguished professionals, many of whom have appeared at renowned festivals including Marlboro, Verbier, Spoleto, and Mostly Mozart, as well as in performances at Lincoln Center and Carnegie Hall. Several members have participated in Carnegie Hall’s Ensemble Connect program, with alumni now serving as principal players in leading ensembles such as the Cleveland Orchestra and the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra.

Praised as “the classical group that does it all,” Frisson offers dynamic programs that span an array of ensemble combinations — from winds, piano trios, and piano quartets to octets and nonets. Their repertoire ranges from masterworks to lighter fare, with programs featuring Gershwin, Cole Porter, John Williams, and Astor Piazzolla, as well as their own celebrated version of Peter and the Wolf.

Since its founding, Frisson has performed more than 100 concerts across the United States and abroad. Recent and upcoming engagements include appearances at the Morgan Library and Museum (New York City), the Da Camera Society (Los Angeles), the Detroit Institute of Arts, the Bermuda Festival, Newport Classical, Syracuse Friends of Chamber Music, InConcert Sierra, Chamber Music Marin, El Camino College, Sarasota Opera House, Woodstock Town Hall, the Mann Center in Fort Myers, and the Palm Springs Concert Association.

DVORÁK 9 "NEW WORLD" | JENKINS

The Second Ending Ensemble, conceived by Music Director and Conductor, Ian Carleton Schaefer, has as its short and long-term goals to present classical music to the world in an accessible format that pairs warhorse symphonic works with those borne just months or weeks prior to performance by up-and-coming composers. In doing so, the goal is to allow audiences to experience the spectrum and journey of this great artform and find space for its relevance in today’s modern times, in an accessible format and in the most intimate of spaces. No intermissions. No tuxedos. No fear of clapping between movements. And yes, we might even say some things here and there. The composition of the Second Ending Ensemble will be fluid by design, with performances including musicians from the New York Philharmonic, the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra, the Juilliard School and the New York Youth Symphony. But the Ensemble will have as its constant a community of passionate musicians at that highest of levels who share the joy and the mission of this music and the power of music to transform lives and unite communities. 

This program will pair multi-award winning Welsh composer and producer, Katie Jenkins’ “A Solar Symphony,” commissioned by the Second Ending Ensemble, with Dvorak’s iconic Symphony No. 9 in E minor, “From the New World” – on an evening that reflects on new journeys, the nostalgia for home, and a blending of traditions and cultures. 

All of this taking place on the occasion of the Summer Solstice, the longest day of the year, in the intimate setting of the Appel Room with unparalleled views of Central Park for a fully immersive concertgoing experience.
