This week's concert from the Society for Chamber Music in Rochester features a contrast of musical eras. On the one hand, there's a competition-winning flute sonata by Julian Bennett Holmes, played by Eastman School of Music graduate students Yi Xiang (flute) and Brock Tjosvold (piano). On the other, it's Beethoven's groundbreaking septet, featuring an all-star cast from the Eastman School of Music and the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra. This concert was recorded on Sunday, February 17, 2019 in the Hochstein School of Music Performance Hall.
