In his thirteenth year as the Mr. & Mrs. Curtis G. Anderson Associate Artistic Director Chair, world renowned violinist Daniel Hope was recently awarded the 2015 European Cultural Prize for Music. Hope brings together his friends and colleagues from across Europe and North America for the SMF chamber music series each season, joined this year by violist Paul Neubauer of the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center. This opening concert features three great works from composers of the first Viennese School, including the sonorous Trout Quintet, written in 1819 when Schubert was just 22 years of age.
