The Met Orchestra Chamber Ensemble

The always-evolving Met Orchestra Chamber Ensemble features musicians from the legendary Met Orchestra in a variety of unique programs. Alongside special guest artists from the Met Opera and beyond, they explore a boundless world of chamber music that includes all-time classics, hidden gems, and standout works by many of today’s acclaimed composers. Conductor Yannick Nézet-Séguin leads this evening’s performance of Schubert’s masterful “Death and the Maiden” Quartet, powerfully arranged for string orchestra by Gustav Mahler. The program also features Janáček’s impassioned String Quartet No. 2, “Intimate Letters”; and more.
