THE PROGRAM NOTES
Luigi Boccherini – Night Music of the Streets of Madrid, Op. 30 No. 6
Luigi Boccherini (1743–1805) was born in the Tuscan city of Lucca. Boccherini came from a family of professional musicians and was a virtuoso cellist himself. After establishing himself as a performer and composer in Italy and Austria, he eventually moved to Spain, where he spent the rest of his life in the service of the Spanish royal family.
One of the few overtly programmatic works Boccherini ever wrote, Night Music of the Streets of Madrid offers an evocative window into the soundscape of a summer evening in the city. It was so specific to its Spanish setting that Boccherini feared audiences outside of Spain would not understand it — and so he withheld it from publication during his lifetime. We are lucky that Boccherini provided descriptions for each movement, which serve as both a listener’s guide and a performer’s map to capture the vivid street scenes of the city.
The piece opens with the sounds of the church bell of the city’s main cathedral. Boccherini achieves the resonance of the bell by utilizing the sonorities of open strings, creating a rich resonance in space. The soothing atmosphere is broken by the harsh sound of the military drum, mimicked by the first violin.
Then comes the Minuet of the Blind Beggars, where the violins play a lilting dance tune, while the cellos are instructed in the score to hold their instruments like guitars, imitating street performers. Minuets (or menuets) are elegant couple’s dances of French origin and are called such because traditionally the dancers would take “pas menus” (small steps).
The following movement – The Rosary – is marked senza rigor di battuta (“without strict adherence to the beat”), and this weightlessness and suspension of time imbues the music with a deep sense of reverence and inner stillness. The violin and cello move slowly together, punctuated by occasional bell tones from the second violin and dramatic outbursts from the full ensemble.
After another drumroll from the first violin comes the final movement: The Retreat (or Ritrata), which is a depiction of the city garrison marching away as curfew descends. Boccherini’s own instructions for the finale provide valuable context:
“Father of the Symphony” and the “Father of the String Quartet.” Born in the small Austrian village of Rohrau, Haydn rose from humble origins to become one of the most celebrated musicians of his time.
The Pasacalle was a type of instrumental interlude between songs and dances which originated in 17th century Spain. The term is a combination of two words: to “pass” (or “cross”) and “street.” The movement paints a picture of Los Manolos — flamboyantly dressed street singers known for their loud, extroverted performances. The ensemble plays pizzicato (plucking) over a simple repeated chord progression, and the first cello enters with a cheerful, rustic melody. The second violin quickly barges in, making use of an impressive bariolage technique, rapidly crossing adjacent strings to spell out the harmonies.
“One must imagine sitting next to the window on a summer’s night in a Madrid flat, and that the band can only be heard in the far-off distance in some other part of the city... the music grows louder and louder, indicating the Night Watch are passing directly under the listener’s window. Then gradually the volume decreases and again becomes faint as the band moves down the street into the distance.”

Joseph Haydn – Introduction & Earthquake from The Seven Last Words of Our Savior on the Cross, Hob. XX:1B
Joseph Haydn (1732–1809) was one of the most influential composers of the Classical period and is often called the “Father of the Symphony” and the “Father of the String Quartet.” Born in the small Austrian village of Rohrau, Haydn rose from humble origins to become one of the most celebrated musicians of his time.
One of Haydn’s most profound and spiritual works, The Seven Last Words of Our Savior on the Cross was commissioned in 1786 for the Good Friday service at the underground Chapel of Santa Cueva in Cádiz, Spain. In his preface to one of the first published editions, Haydn describes the unique conditions of the service, which took place in near-total darkness. During the liturgy, the bishop would announce each of Christ’s final utterances from the cross (as recorded in the gospels of Matthew, Luke, and John), followed by a meditation, and then a musical reflection. Haydn composed seven slow movements (sonatas), each approximately ten minutes long, which correspond with each of the seven utterances. He later described it as one of the most difficult compositional tasks of his career.

of Santa Cueva in Cádiz, Spain. In his preface to one of the first published editions, Haydn describes the unique conditions of the service, which took place in near-total darkness. During the liturgy, the bishop would announce each of Christ’s final utterances from the cross (as recorded in the gospels of Matthew, Luke, and John), followed by a meditation, and then a musical reflection. Haydn composed seven slow movements (sonatas), each approximately ten minutes long, which correspond with each of the seven utterances. He later described it as one of the most difficult compositional tasks of his career.
Originally scored for orchestra, Haydn went on to arrange the work for string quartet, chorus, and also approved an arrangement for solo piano. In this performance, we present the outer movements surrounding the seven words: the harrowing Introduction and the thunderous final movement, Earthquake, which follows Christ’s death and the biblical passage: “the earth shook, and the rocks were split.”
The Introduction in D minor begins dramatically, immediately establishing a sense of emotional unrest. Pulsat-ing rhythmic figures propel the music forward while the harmony shifts unpredictably. This harmonic instability creates tension, and the brief moments of calm are quickly disrupted by sudden dynamic surges. The music seems to hesitate and resist resolution, evoking a deep, unresolved spiritual struggle.
The work concludes with an explosive, seemingly apocalyptic finale in C minor — a key not at all related to where the piece began. This kind of tonal journey, ending so far from the original D minor, is compositionally uncharacteristic of the time period; yet in this context, it feels entirely fitting, as it reinforces the sense of disruption. Swirling scales, trembling rhythmic figures, and relentless energy evoke the chaos of the earth-shattering moment at Golgotha.
1939. His parents and sister perished at the hands of the Nazis at the Trawniki concentration camp, and Weinberg managed to flee east to the Soviet Union. There, he was supported by fellow composer Dmitri Shostakovich and eventually settled in Moscow. However, during the Stalinist years, Weinberg faced political persecution, including pressure from the notorious Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Mieczysław Weinberg
Mieczysław Weinberg – Concertino for Violin and Strings, Op. 42
Mieczyslaw Weinberg (1919-1996) was a Polish-born composer with Jewish roots. He was trained at the Warsaw Conservatory and was just beginning his career when Germany invaded Poland in 1939. His parents and sister perished at the hands of the Nazis at the Trawniki concentration camp, and Weinberg managed to flee east to the Soviet Union. There, he was supported by fellow composer Dmitri Shostakovich and eventually settled in Moscow. However, during the Stalinist years, Weinberg faced political persecution, including pressure from the notorious Ministry of Internal Affairs.
The Concertino was written in 1948 and contains elements of neoclassicism, hearkening back to the musical aesthetics of earlier eras.
In the opening Allegretto cantabile, the violin enters immediately without any orchestral introduction, spinning out a line that is both icy and lyrical, as the muted strings whisper underneath. The violin line rises slowly, climbing higher and higher until it dissolves into silence, marked morendo (“dying away”).
The Concertino was written in 1948 and contains elements of neoclassicism, hearkening back to the musical aesthetics of earlier eras.
The second movement begins with a strikingly bare cadenza, an unaccompanied improvisation where the solo violin voices an intense emotional outcry. When the strings return, the music unfolds into a fragile and lyrical Adagio, full of warmth but shadowed by vulnerability.

In the final movement, Allegro modera-to poco rubato, the violin emerges from introspection into a swaying rondo – a musical form especially popular in the baroque and classical eras, featuring a recurring main theme with contrasting episodes in between. The music gradually becomes more unsettled, as a restless undercurrent begins stirring in the lower strings. The violin recalls earlier themes before being swept into a whirlwind, spiraling toward a frenzied conclusion.
Gioachino Rossini, circa 1815
3 in C Major
Gioachino Rossini (1792–1868) was one of the most celebrated composers of the early 19th century, best known for his operas such as The Barber of Seville, La Cenerentola, and William Tell, which took Europe by storm. Born in Pesaro, Italy, into a musical family, Rossini showed prodigious talent from an early age and composed his first opera at just 18. Though he retired from opera composition in his late thirties, Rossini remained a central figure in European musical life and later composed a number of chamber and sacred works.
This piece, which is part of a set of six string sonatas – was written when Rossini was just 12 years old, during a stay in Ravenna at the home of Agostino Triossi, an amateur double bass enthusiast — which helps explain the unusually prominent bass part. Even at such an early age, Rossini’s theatrical instincts, and his flair for comedy shine through.
The Sonata begins with grand sweeping gestures that feel like a curtain rising on an opera. The violins take turns exchanging the theme, while the cello and bass interrupt with playful jabs.
The second movement, Andante, opens in a threatening and deeply troubled manner. Then, in a sudden shift, a singing melody unfolds, reminiscent of arias by Mozart. The music eventually returns to its earlier sentimentality, fading away to nothingness.

The final movement returns to a spirit of playfulness, with Rossini’s sense of humor palpable in every twist and turn. Every instrument has a moment to shine, and each is outdoing the previous one with increasing speed and volatility.

Joseph Haydn – Adagio cantabile from Symphony No. 13 in D Major
This symphony was written in 1763 for Prince Nikolaus Esterházy I, a Hungarian nobleman who was one of Haydn’s most important patrons and a central figure in the composer’s professional life. A lover of music and an amateur musician himself, Prince Nikolaus invested heavily in the arts to cultivate a sophisticated cultural life at his residence. Their 30 year relationship provided Haydn with financial stability, a private orchestra, and a fertile environment for creativity at the lavish Eszterháza palace — of-ten called the “Hungarian Versailles.” Though court life was sometimes isolated, Haydn credited this seclusion with helping him develop his originality.
The piece features a beautiful cello solo in the second movement — likely written for Joseph Franz Weigl, the court’s principal cellist, for whom Haydn also composed his 1st Cello Concerto in C major.
The Adagio cantabile is written in the style of an aria, with a gentle, swaying accompaniment. Winds and brass are absent in this movement, creating a transparent texture for the cello to float above. Haydn had a close and ongoing relationship with the musicians of the Esterházy orchestra, giving him a deep understanding of how to write idiomatically for each instrument. He takes full advantage of the cello’s expressive capabilities, especially in the upper registers.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756–1791) was one of the most influential and prolific composers in history. Born in Salzburg, he showed extraordinary musical ability from an early age, performing across Europe as a child prodigy. Mozart’s output spans virtually every major genre of his time, including symphonies, concertos, chamber music, sacred works, and opera. In his short lifetime he produced over 600 compositions, many of which remain central to the concert repertoire today. His music shaped the development of the Classical style and remained a reference point for composers across many generations.
In the winter of 1772, at the age of sixteen, Mozart returned to his hometown of Salzburg after two extended tours through Italy. On such journeys, he was almost always accompanied by his father, Leopold Mozart, who was not only a respected composer and pedagogue but also an ardent promoter of his son’s extraordinary talent. Back in Salzburg, Mozart turned his attention to chamber music, producing three divertimenti for strings, of which this is the first. The work reveals both youthful exuberance and striking sophistication, qualities that reflect his growing independence as a composer even under the guiding presence of his father.
The opening Allegro brims with vitality. Rapid violin passages propel the music forward, only to break off in sudden silences that heighten the sense of anticipation. Midway through, the atmosphere shifts toward a more questioning, unsettled tone before the buoyant momentum returns.

Even at such an early age, Rossini’s theatrical instincts, and his flair for comedy shine through.
The Andante offers a contrasting intimacy. Its tender lyricism unfolds with graceful simplicity, yet Mozart laces the movement with subtle surprises, moments that momentarily suggest closure only to subvert our expectations.
The Sonata begins with grand sweeping gestures that feel like a curtain rising on
The concluding Presto begins in a whisper, before bursting forth into an exuberant character. In the second half, Mozart introduces a brief contrapuntal exchange, with voices imitating one another in quick succession, before releasing the tension in return to unrestrained energy. Sudden shifts in dynamics and character contribute to a sense of spontaneity, culminating in a radiant conclusion.
