    In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, France became the compositional epicenter of chamber music written for wind instruments. The timbrally colorful combination of the instruments proved irresistible for many of France's most compelling musical voices. Join pianist Alessio Bax and virtuosic wind players from the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center -- Tara Helen O'Connor, flute; Stephen Taylor, oboe; David Shifrin, clarinet; Peter Kolkay, bassoon; and Radovan Vlatkovi?, horn -- as they explore this ravishing, and rarely heard, repertoire.

    The program includes Maurice Emmanuel's Sonata for Flute, Clarinet, and Piano, op. 11; Jean Françaix's Wind Quintet; Francis Poulenc's Sextet for Piano, Flute, Oboe, Clarinet, Bassoon, and Horn; and other works.
