Join Chamber Music Maryland for an exceptional afternoon of music at the beautiful Peale museum, featuring the Ulysses Quartet and the clarinetist, Oskar Espina Ruiz. Praised for their “textural versatility and grave beauty” (The Strad), the Ulysses Quartet combines forces with a “phenomenal clarinetist” (CVNC), Oskar Espina Ruiz, to deliver a fascinating performance. This concert, marking the opening of the second season of our concert series in Baltimore City, features a program ranging from the compositions of Vivaldi and Richter to the modern works of Dana Wilson and Seth Grosshandler, along with Armenian Folk songs. Don’t miss this remarkable fusion of historical depth and contemporary vibrance held in the unique setting of The Peale. We invite you to join us and the fellow concertgoers to meet and greet the artists over a delightful chocolate and champagne after the concert!
