As we approach to Thanksgiving, we hope to show our gratitude
and support on to the front-line medical workers with music, as
well as our beloved family who has been with us. The concert
starts with the audience’s favorite, Dvorak’s “American” string
quartet, followed by the czech composer Josef Suk who is one of
Dvorak’s favorite pupils and future son-in-law. Corigliano's
string quartet, "Snapshot," is describing his impressions of his
father. Mrs. Amy Beach, one of the most accomplished female
American composers of the Romantic period. The concert will
conclude with an Indigenous tribe song by Taiwanese composer Tyzen Hsiao, who is well-known in Taiwan and around the globe, a
way of us to feature Taiwan's native tribe dance music!
