â Dana Hersey from North Shore's 104.9 FM interviewed some of the Multi-Faith Festival committee members. Do enjoy! KHARIS Chamber Players is a multi-faceted Chamber Music group performing a wide array of classical repertoire for Piano, Winds and Strings. The musicians joining together for this concert are active solo and chamber performers in the Boston area and beyond and have collaborated for several years, performing in various formations (quartets, trios, duos and occasional solos or quintets) in many different venues. The French repertoire for Piano and Winds includes some of the finest music ever written for wind instruments during the late 19th century - early 20th century and beyond. An “Aubade” (“Alborada” in Spanish) was a love poem meant to be sung at dawn by the “troubadours”, medieval poets of Southern France - as opposed to a “Serenade”, sung in the evening. French composers started using the term again for various musical compositions in the 19th and 20th century. Camille Saint-Saens' lively Caprice on Danish and Russian Airs, Op.79, for Piano and Winds, Olivier Messiaen’s Abîme des Oiseaux from the Quartet for the End of Time, Claude Debussy’s Syrinx for solo Flute, Gabriel Fauré’s Pavane Op.65, and the rarely heard Darius Milhaud’s Sonate Op. 47 for Piano and Winds are all stellar examples of that repertoire.
