| Hult Center for the Performing Arts: Silva Concert Hall, Eugene, OR, 1 Eugene Center, Eugene, 97401, United States Saturday 6-Jul-13 07:30pm Rilling and Halls: Passing of the Baton Join a family of more than 200 OBF musicians as we cross a symbolic bridge into the future. Helmuth Rilling begins by conducting his daughter and son-in-law in Brahms’s darkly lyrical, profoundly symphonic Double Concerto. He will then hand the baton on to his successor Matthew Halls, who leads the chorus and soloists in the vividly contrasting worlds of Brahms’s “Song of Destiny” and Mendelssohn’s joyous Psalm 95, “Come let us sing.” Works by Mendelssohn, Felix (1809-1847) | ||

| University of Oregon: Beall Concert Hall, Eugene, OR, 961 East 18th Avenue, Eugene, OR, United States Saturday 13-Jul-13 07:30pm Hohenstaufen Quartet Making music together was a cherished bond of the Bach family. The Rilling sisters and Adorjan brothers continue that tradition as the Hohenstaufen Quartet, named for the Rilling family’s hilltop retreat. They offer the soaring melodies and sweet sentimentality of Mendelssohn’s Op. 44, No. 2 String Quartet, and Schubert’s epic Quartet No. 15, a spellbinding series of contrasts, expansions, and variations. | ||
