Review: An Auspicious Start to Chamber Music Season

The distinction of being the first chamber music recital of the 2018-19 season in Knoxville goes to violinist Miroslav Hristov of the University of Tennessee School of Music, along with four notable guests, for their “An Evening of Chamber Music” recital this past Sunday evening. Their performance of Schubert’s String Quintet in C Major, along with works by Reinhold Glière and Beethoven, was their second of the weekend—the first being on Friday evening at East Tennessee State University where two members of the quintet, violist David Kováč and cellist Sean Hawthorne, are on the music faculty. The quintet also included violinist Yu-Fang Chen of Ball State University and cellist Daniel Veis of Park University in Missouri.
