HVCMC 2026 Summer Season: Espressivo!

For decades, violinist Jaime Laredo and cellist Sharon Robinson, together with their piano trio partner the late Joseph Kalichstein, were hailed as "chamber music royalty" ("Washington Post"), a distinction that equally applies to their ESPRESSIVO! partners—the stellar violist Milena Pájaro-van de Stadt, a founding member of the Dover Quartet, and the award-winning pianist Anna Polonsky, one of chamber music's most sought-after collaborators. Their program includes favorites by Beethoven and Schumann and a reprise of Richard Danielpour’s "Book of Hours," co-commissioned by the Hudson Valley Chamber Music Circle and premiered on our series at Olin Auditorium in 2007.
