Music of Golijov and Dvorak

Walla Walla Chamber Music Festival welcomes back virtuoso clarinetist Kevin Schempf for this performance of Golijov’s “The Dreams and Prayers of Isaac the Blind” for Klezmer Clarinet and String Quartet. Blazing technique and characteristic “laughter through tears” describe this evocative work. Bassist, and Dayton, Washington native, Kevin Casseday of the Jacksonville Philharmonic (Florida) returns to Southeast Washington to perform the Dvorak Bass Quintet in G. The work shines with Bohemian dance and folksong, and will surely match the splendor of the Walla Walla Valley in late Spring.
