Essays and Readings

The music of Schubert’s Octet is paired in dialogue with one of New York’s most distinctive literary voices, Adam Gopnik, a great fan of the composer. Between movements of the Octet, Gopnick will read an original narrative about the intersection of music and life. Conversation with the author follows each performance.
