The Trio: Larry Goldings/Peter Bernstein/Bill Stewart
Monday, September 3, 2012 | 7:00pm

	Larry Goldings, organ; Peter Bernstein, guitar; Bill Stewart, drums In the mid 1990s, The New York Times described Larry Goldings, Peter Bernstein, and Bill Stewart as "the best organ trio of the last decade." The trio, which has now been together for over 20 years, has been recognized for charting new ground, with its synergistic playing, yet thoughtful music. They have recorded eight albums and one DVD together, all of which display their distinctive sound, whether exploring the depths of jazz standards, or playing their own original compositions.
Their newest offering, Live at Smalls, is their first live record and captures the group's energy and creativity from the New York City jazz club that helped garner their reputation as one of the greatest organ trios playing today.

Rubens Quartet with Stefanie Jacob
Friday, January 25, 2013 | 7:30pm

	Sarah Kapustin, violin; Tali Goldberg, violin; Roeland Jagers, viola; Joachim Eijlander, cello; Stefanie Jacob, piano The Rubens Quartet–whose members come from the Netherlands, Israel and the US–has become one of the finest young quartets of its generation since being founded in 2000. The quartet has impressed audiences throughout its home country of the Netherlands and abroad, and is praised for its warm sound, remarkable sense of rhythm and harmony, and ability to communicate with an audience.
Through its rich knowledge of string quartet culture, the mission of the Rubens Quartet is to combine the old with the new, by interpreting lesser known works of the past and present and placing them alongside the great standards of the quartet repertoire. The quartet plays in dance choreographies, connects literature and music, and initiates music theatre performances. In its concert programs, the ensemble regularly pairs classic with contemporary (Haydn with Dutilleux, Shostakovich with Roukens), and is dedicated to promoting new music, having worked closely with such composers as György Kurtág, Louis Andriessen and Sofia Gubaidulina. Rubens Quartet will be joined by Stefanie Jacob, pianist of the Conservatory’s resident ensemble Prometheus Trio. The concert program includes: Ludwig van Beethoven: String Quartet Op. 18, No. 3 Joey Roukens: Visions at Sea César Franck: Piano Quintet in f minor
