  The celebrated Claremont Trio returns to the Gardner Museum, joined by violist Rosemary Nelis and bassist Bradley Aikman, for a performance of 19th-century French composer Louise Farrenc's Piano Quintet No. 1 in A minor, Op. 30. Farrenc, whose music is only now receiving the attention it deserves, was a formidable pianist and composer whose piano quintet stands alongside the finest chamber works of her era. The trio will also take on Ravel's luscious piano trio and Shulamit Ran's yearning Soliloquy, which grew out of her work on an operatic adaptation of The Dybbuk by S. An-sky.

The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum's Winter/Spring 2026 Weekend Concert Series features a fifteen-concert season curated by Abrams Curator of Music George Steel running from January 25 through May 17, 2026. The winter/spring season showcases world-class artists in the Museum's extraordinary Calderwood Hall-a 300-seat "sonic cube" with three levels of balconies designed so that 80% of seats are front row, creating a uniquely intense and intentional listening experience. Dating to 1927, the Gardner's Weekend Concert Series is the longest running museum music program in the country.
