Midweek Masterworks: Notes on a Scandal
Prelude Concert by Abeo Quartet at 6 PM
A musical exploration of passion—and the madness, jealousy, and ecstasy it can inspire. From Gesualdo’s murderous heart, to Debussy’s sordid affair, to Franck’s torrid infatuation, “Notes on a Scandal” exposes the dangerous (but melodious!) consequences of love gone wrong.

Moro, lasso, al mio
Non mai non cangerò
Simone Porter, Blake Pouliot, violins; Matthew Lipman, Masumi Per Rostad, violas; Paul Wiancko, cello
DEBUSSY
