Please join us at Presbyterian Kirk in the Pines Church for a recital on Sunday, February 7, 2027 at 3 pm. The HS/HSV Symphony Guild is pleased to bring you Johannes Brahms's Piano Quartet No. 1 in G Minor, Op. 25 performed by violinist and Concertmaster of the Arkansas Symphony Orchestra Kiril Laskarov and cellist, violinist/violist and Associate Concertmaster, Katherine Williamson, Rockefeller Quartet member cellist Jacob Wunsch and pianist Jaeyeon Park. There will be a reception following the concert in Hoffius Hall at the church.

Johannes Brahms’s Piano Quartet No. 1 in G Minor, Op. 25, is one of the great chamber works of the Romantic era—dramatic, lyrical, and brilliantly constructed. Written while Brahms was still in his twenties and premiered in 1861 with Clara Schumann at the piano, the quartet already reveals the sweeping emotional intensity and rich musical architecture that would define his mature style. Each instrument plays an equal role in the musical dialogue, from the searching opening movement to the warm lyricism of the Andante con moto.
