We recognize the centennial of Claude Monet’s death in 1926, bringing together composers who shared his artistic world. The Little Shepherd from Debussy’s Children’s Corner opens the program. This simple, wistful work paints a vivid pastoral scene. Fauré’s Piano Trio in d minor is a concise and emotionally direct piece from a composer who moved in many of the same Parisian social circles as Monet. The program closes with the Piano Quartet by Chausson, who regularly hosted the painter, Debussy, and other leading artistic figures of the day at his celebrated salons.
