Beloved folk songs. A world premiere. A secret melody revealed.
Acclaimed violist Richard O’Neill and pianist-composer August Baik open the Mariposa Series with a vivid, deeply personal program about heritage, memory, and the music that lives beneath the surface. Baik’s new work draws on Korean folk songs, while Britten’s haunting Lachrymae slowly reveals a hidden song by John Dowland. Rzewski’s “Winnsboro Cotton Mill Blues” transforms a folk song made famous by Pete Seeger and transforms it into a virtuosic tour de force.
The evening culminates in Sergei Rachmaninoff’s sweeping Sonata in G Minor, arranged for viola by O’Neill — a passionate, cinematic work that has shaped both artists’ lives. For Baik, it was the first major duo sonata he studied; for O’Neill, it has remained a lifelong companion since learning it during a formative and deeply emotional summer at the Music Academy under legendary mentor Donald McInnes. Returning to the sonata over the years has revealed new layers of meaning and connection, reminding both musicians that while life changes, great music evolves alongside us.
Together, O’Neill and Baik create a powerful journey of discovery and transformation, where old songs become new again.

Plagued by self-doubt, Sergei Rachmaninoff had abandoned his music. When inspiration returned, he poured every ounce of longing and triumph into the concerto that made him immortal. Grammy Award-winning pianist Michelle Cann brings it to life. "She displayed her own powerful technique," raved Washington Classical Review. Nir Kabaretti also conducts Shostakovich's Fifth —a stirring masterpiece of courage, conflict, and survival.

Journey through the changing light of a single day in a program that moves from sunrise to moonlit night.
The Maple Quartet, the Music Academy’s 2026 Emerging Artists String Quartet, joins sisters and Music Academy alums Julie Albers and Rebecca Albers for a luminous evening shaped by nature, time, and transformation. Following a successful summer 2026 residency under the guidance of The Takács Quartet, the Maple Quartet brings together four rising artists celebrated for their artistry, dedication, and shared vision of chamber music as a deeply collaborative art form.
One of Haydn’s radiant “Sun” quartets, Op. 20, No. 6, opens the program with warmth and brilliance. A world premiere by Maple Quartet’s John Crowley draws listeners into the shifting phases of the moon. The Albers sisters will join the Quartet for Schoenberg’s Verklärte Nacht — a lush, romantic masterpiece glowing with longing, intimacy, and breathtaking beauty.
