CSO Chamber Music: Trillium Ensemble

Oct 20, 2026 — 6:30 PM

Overview

Hear chamber music at its most intimate and expressive. Haydn’s elegant Piano Trio opens the evening, showcasing the wit and warmth of the composer’s enduring works. Schubert’s luminous Notturno follows, unfolding as a serene meditation, its soaring melody suspended over gently pulsing piano chords in music of extraordinary stillness and beauty. The program culminates with Tchaikovsky’s Piano Trio, an emotional tour de force that journeys from whispered tenderness to soaring passion. Rich in drama, this is chamber music that invites you to lean in and lose yourself in the moment.

General admission seating available on the stage or in the terrace. Early arrival is recommended — doors open approximately 45 minutes before the concert.
