The Ritz Chamber Players bring a close to our 2009-2010 concert season by featuring the work of a great composer’s music based on folk themes.  Our departing musical gift will express Dvořák’s belief that “the future music of this country must be founded upon what are called the Negro melodies. This must be the real foundation of any serious and original school of composition to be developed in the United States.” Audiences will delight in this incredible program with the stunning and expressive Dvořák Piano Quartet No. 2 through to a vibrant work by Brazilian composer, Villa-Lobos, described as “the single most significant creative figure in 20th-century Brazilian art music.”
