The annual Appalachian Summer Festival in Boone, NC, is famous for the quality of its chamber music offerings. The Festival’s resident chamber music group is the Broyhill Chamber Ensemble, who begin this week’s edition of Carolina Live with Beethoven’s Sonata No. 8 in G and also play Beethoven’s Piano Quintet in f-minor. You’ll then hear Felix Mendelssohn’s delightful Symphony No. 3 in a-minor, his “Scottish” symphony, played by the Western Piedmont Symphony. Enjoy the variety on this show.
