How does a group of musicians, each playing distinct parts of the same piece but on different instruments, manage to produce a single exquisite sound? Teamwork! Three gifted players demonstrate how musicians perform their individual best while staying tuned in to what the other ensemble members are doing. As students listen to works by Schubert, Brahms, Albeniz and Strauss, they will discover that the same values that drive a winning sports franchise—taking turns, being both leader and follower, listening to others—hold just as true when it comes to making beautiful music.
Atlanta Chamber Players
The Atlanta Chamber Players is one of the nation's most active chamber ensembles and one of the South's outstanding cultural resources.
This renowned group of musicians has performed around the country - in more than 65 cities - to great critical and audience acclaim. The New York Times said of the Players' New York City debut, "the playing was enthusiastic and collegial," while the Boston Globe called the Atlanta Chamber Players "a genuinely fine group of instrumentalists."
The ensemble's repertory ranges from the traditional masterpieces of Brahms and Beethoven to the contemporary classics of Ives and Shostakovich.
