“Winterreise”
February 28, 2025 at 7:00 PM
The world-renowned Dalí Quartet returns to the Park Avenue Community Center with a special performance of Franz Schubert's haunting masterpiece "Winterreise" in collaboration with acclaimed baritone Randall Scarlata.
Scarlata's 2018 recording of "Winterreise" was honored with a GRAMMY nomination, and now he joins forces with the Dalí Quartet to present this work in a striking and uncommon manner. The delicate piano accompaniment has been expertly adapted for the string quartet, creating an intensified dramatic experience as listeners are transported to the world of a young man journeying through a winter landscape to reckon with his grief over a lost love.
The Dalí Quartet is known for their passionate performances that blend the classical tradition with the vibrant sounds of Latin America. Their unique approach to chamber music has earned them critical acclaim around the world. Joining them on stage, Randall Scarlata's rich, expressive baritone voice has been praised for its sensitivity and emotional depth, making him the perfect partner to bring Schubert's poignant narrative to life.
This Concert is made possible in part with a grant from the County Council and the Delaware County Interactive Gaming Revenue Authority.
