Austin Chamber Music Center

Comment on Facebook

The Austin Chamber Music Center strives to serve the Central Texas community by expanding knowledge, understanding, and appreciation of chamber music through quality performances. They often perform their concerts in public venues such as churches, universities, and museums and host an annual chamber music festival featuring local and visiting classical musicians.

This project is funded and supported in part by a grant from the Texas Commission on the Arts and in part by the City of Austin Economic Growth & Redevelopment Services Office/Cultural Arts Division believing an investment in the Arts is an investment in Austin’s future.

      There is a legend that Pope Boniface VIII asked the artist Giotto to demonstrate his artistic skill, and in response the artist drew a perfect circle freehand. I have no idea of this story is true or not, but Anonymous 4's singing is the musical equivalent of Giotto's perfect circle. I have long been a fan of Anonymous 4, having several of their recordings, and was thrilled to get the opportunity to get to see them live at Bates Recital Hall. The first half of their program consisted of selections from their CD "Secret Voices: Music from Los Huelgas," and the second half from their CD "American Angels." In all their songs, the four women demonstrated their dedication to and perfection of their craft. Much of the music had not been performed before they did so- at least not in a public concert setting. This was a one-night performance, so I cannot say to catch them in town, but I can urge anyone with a passing interest in vocal music to buy their recordings. You'll be glad you did. Collapse

      The Austin Chamber Music Center February concert was a program of works for piano and string quartet which had been used in movie soundtracks. The choices were very good -- I went because I knew I would hear Barber's Adagio for Strings which was given a touching reading. The musicianship was excellent; I think the Carpe Diem Quartet are very good, and Michelle Schumann plays well also. I also enjoyed the introductory remarks by Ms. Schumann before each piece. The venue was fine; it felt intimate to me. It was well worth my time. Collapse

      The Brentano String Quartet members are consummate professionals and excellent performers individually. As good as they are, the group blend and interplay of the parts exceed any individual virtuousity. I heard sounds from the instruments I have never heard before. I was awestruck by the beauty of the group sound. If you have an opportunity to hear this group, be sure to attend and take a friend. I also enjoyed the introductory remarks by Michelle Schumann which helped me to enjoy each piece even more. I took off half a star for the selfish reason that I still prefer symphonic treatments to quartets. Collapse

      I'm a singer, and have never learned to play an instrument other than basic piano, so I'm not the most qualified judge of instrumental ensembles. But I have to say, the Cavani String Quartet blew me away. (Apparently they are a familiar site to Austin classical music fans, as they have visited as guest artists for the University of Texas as Visiting Artists in Chamber Music for almost ten years.) Anyway, the unity and clarity of the sound cut cleanly through the air; one is reminded of Canadian Brass in this regard. The pieces were Beethoven's String Quartet in G Major, the String Quartet No. 2 by Szymanowski (who I hadn't heard before but I'm glad I did), and Quintet for Pinao and Strings in F Minor by Brahms. All of the pieces were a joy to listen to, and what really impressed me was the obvious passion and intensity with which they played. I hope to see the Cavani Quartet again. Collapse

      If you want to see four girls who 'just want to have fun' check out the raucous Cavani String Quartet. Flying bow hair, and just plan flying hair, will lift you out of your chair when you experience these high-heeled gals who put more passion in Brahms than the Lion himself! Having played, prayed, lived and died together for 15 years, these women feed off each other's breath, bow and genius more than reading notes. Don't expect four men in penguin suits. You're in for a Divine Goddess experience and the Cavani Quartet is your Stairway to Heaven! Collapse

      This was a concert with a great deal of variety: the Beethoven quartet, an early one, was sedate, playful, classical; the middle piece, by an early modern little-known Polish composer, was atonal and eerie; the final piece, a quintet with the piano part played by the excellent Michelle Schumann, was utterly Romantic, passionate, complex and over the top. So all tastes were served. I wish Dr. Schumann hadn't offered lengthy introductions analyzing the Beethoven and Brahms pieces; a concert is not a classroom, and the speeches before each piece really spoil the atmosphere and interrupt the mood created by the pure music. All that commentary could have been relegated to program notes. Let the performers come in and play and trust the audience to understand and respond. So much explaining is an insult to the concert-goers and really spoils the experience. Otherwise, the players and program would have been wonderful. Collapse

      It’s not that often that you’re invited to understand the thought processes of the artists you’re privileged enough to see, but with Michelle Schumann it’s all part of the show. This is the third time I’ve seen her (twice before at Villa Antonia) and the first time for Soovin Kim, who also gave a verbal interpretation of the music. It was a perfect combination of performers, wonderful setting at the Unitarian Church, and a great crowd of appreciative people. I guess you can tell I’m a little prejudiced, but when something is that good it’s easy to review. No light show, no special effects, just performers who love what they do and people who are intelligent enough to appreciate it in a place kind enough to have the show. And the music—my God, thanks so much. Collapse

      People think of chamber music as staid, solemn, and proper. When Michelle Schumann is involved those preconceptions float away along with the surroundings when you close your eyes. Saturday night, went with esposo to the Brahms Violin Sonatas presented by the Austin Chamber Music Center at the First Unitarian Church. Michelle Schumann is the Director of ACMC, in addition to her other work as a performer around the world and as a teacher at Mary Hardin-Baylor. I have seen her 3 times now and try not to miss a chance, because she informs the performance with her narratives about the composer and the times in which each piece was written, and enlivens the piano with her sheer physical joy. This time she played with Soovin Kim, also a performer with numerous major orchestras around the world, and the players complemented each other. Particularly in the last piece with the melody "played on the G string of the violin, and that is just as sexy as it sounds." More at rebablog.wordpress.com Collapse

      So often with top classical players you're in a big hall and rely on your ears only for enjoyment. Not so with the Austin Chamber Music folks, you're up close and get to catch the aerobic of these string players. Their grace, speed and finesse is as breathtaking as well as the sound. As a violinist myself I love to see the pinky finger's wild vibrato high on the violin's e string, watch finger work on the keyboard, and imagine what it feels like to have a big vibrating cello between my thighs. Chamber music, unlike in the orchestra hall, is up close and personal. The evening was superb, the players, the aerobics, and the sound. The cellist played a solo suing only one string. Michelle told us the story of how Paganini played it in prison on his violin that only had one string left, and cellist don't like to be outdone! The Ravel piece was dream like, like the sequenced flowing shirt of the violinist. The Rachmaninov wa deeply moving tribute to his teacher Tchaikovsky, stunning. Collapse
