The Esoterics close out their season this Saturday and Sunday with “Memoriam.”  The program features contemporary, choral music that honors people who have risked their lives and died.  One of the pieces on the program, “Meanwhile,” is an Esoterics commission remembering the ten year anniversary of the Columbine shooting.  Also on the program are pieces by Dominick Argento, John Muehleisen, and Eric Banks, the founder of the Esoterics.  You can listen to a podcast about the concert here(April 25 and 26).

Tomorrow, the Serious Quartet continues the Seattle Symphony’s musician driven chamber series.  The recital happens in the Nordstrom Recital Hall.  (April 24).

Dennis Russell Davies continues his residency with the Seattle Symphony this weekend and is joined by pianist Marc Andre Hamelin for a concert of Schubert and Liszt.  Liszt’s play on the Dies Ire theme “Totentanz” and Liszt’s setting of the “Wanderer Fantasy” will give Hamelin plenty of opportunity for keyboard fireworks(April 23-26).

The Early Music Guild presents Ensemble Caprice (April 25).
