Ensemble Connect—“the new face of classical music for New York” (The New York Times)—kicks off its 2024–2025 season in Weill Recital Hall with a program featured in Carnegie Hall’s spotlight on the music of South Africa. The concert is bookended by a pair of stunning piano quintets: Bongani Ndodana-Breen’s Safika: Three Tales on African Migration and Dvořák’s Piano Quintet No. 2. Also featured is Andile Khumalo’s Cry Out, a notable work for viola, oboe, marimba, and piano. Together, these pieces suggest echoes of lives, songs, dances, and connections to a land that endure despite the forces of time and change.
