Grammy-nominated quintet Imani Winds will continue SUNY Oswego’s Ke-Nekt Chamber Music Series with a 7:30 p.m. performance Wednesday, Nov. 11, in the Sheldon Hall ballroom.
Known for its polish and passion, the quintet has been called “one of chamber music’s most sparkling and eloquent ensembles” by Time magazine. Its repertoire spans baroque to contemporary and includes its commissioned piece “George Perle’s Quintet IV,” which earned a Pulitzer Prize in 1986.
The trio — violinist Anthea Kreston, cellist Jason Duckles and pianist Rieko Aizawa — came together in 1999 and acquired Isaac Stern as a mentor after participating in the legendary violinist’s Chamber Music Workshop at Carnegie Hall in 2000.
The Amelia Piano Trio will kick off the season Sept. 17. The trio — violinist Anthea Kreston, cellist Jason Duckles and pianist Rieko Aizawa — were selected as National Public Radio’s ensemble in residence for their mastery and exploration of music ranging from Beethoven’s classics to John Harbison’s contemporary work.
