Join us for our 37th season! During the two-week festival we bring renowned musicians together with young, rising artists to perform six exciting concerts in Edwards Auditorium at the University of Rhode Island.
Schedule of Events:
4:00 pm - 6:00 pm: Concert 3: "Trout"
Concert 3 presents some of the most celebrated classical music composers of all time: Ludwig van Beethoven, Robert Schuman, and Franz Schubert. Beethoven's Sonata for Cello and Piano No. 4 in C Major, Op. 102 no. 1 provides a fitting introduction to Hai-Ye Ni, principal cellist of the acclaimed Philadelphia Orchestra, who marks her inaugural season with KCMF with this enigmatic piece. Schumann's Piano Trio No. 2 in F Major, Op. 80 will feature internationally celebrated pianist Henry Kramer. And lastly, Schubert's upbeat The Trout Quintet in A Major, D. 667 will showcase the talent of double bassist Nathan Farrington.
