TEMPO Concert Hall ~ Doors 3:30 PM | Concert at 4 PM

Chamber Music on the Hudson presents an afternoon that travels from the grandeur of Bach to the passion and rhythmic fire of Piazzolla, with Shostakovich’s vivid, lyrical music in between.

Featuring an exceptional quartet of accordion, violin, cello, and piano, Classical Crossroads: Baroque to Tango brings together four award-winning, internationally acclaimed musicians for a program of virtuosity, intimacy, and exhilarating musical conversation.

Hear the unexpected colors and expressive range created when accordion joins strings and piano—moving effortlessly between Baroque elegance, 20th-century drama, and tango-infused energy.
