Tango Meets Classical: CMC’s 20th Anniversary Season Opening Celebration

Violinist Francisco Fullana has dark hair and wears a jacket as he plays in a stone room.

Chamber Music Charleston celebrates the launch of the extraordinary 20th Anniversary Season with a dynamic concert that brings together guest artists, current and former CMC musicians, and distinguished alumni from the CMC TWO program for music. The concert opens with a masterpiece of baroque brilliance – Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No. 3 – followed by Astor Piazzolla’s Tango-infused “Four Seasons of Buenos Aires.” The program culminates with Mendelssohn’s virtuosic Octet in E-flat Major, written 200 years ago and hailed as one of the greatest chamber works of all time.

Performance is at St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church, 405 King Street.
