BCMS Presents:
Mozart: Clarinet Quintet in A major, K. 581
Wang: String Octet (2025 BCMS commission)
Schumann: Piano Quintet in E-flat major, Op. 44
In the expressive Clarinet Quintet in A major, Mozart utilizes the clarinet’s wide range and diverse timbres and masterfully balances its distinctive tone with the strings. Our 2025 commission features an octet for strings by composer, conductor, and BCMS’s very own member violinist Alyssa Wang. Composed in his “chamber music year” of 1842, Schumann’s romantic Piano Quintet in E-flat major displays a wide range of emotions. Widely credited with inventing the genre of the piano quintet, it remains one of the most celebrated and frequently performed works by Schumann.
