For the Reporter<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n The Auburn Symphony Orchestra presents Old World Masters, its first chamber series\u00a0concert in Kent, on Friday, Nov. 21.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n The concert begins at 7 p.m. at The First Christian Church of Kent, 11717 SE 240th, Kent.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n The concert is sponsored in part by the Kent Arts Commission.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Four members of the Auburn Symphony will offer standard works that are at the core of the chamber repertoire. Also known as “The American Quartet,” Dvorak’s String Quartet in F Major was written when the composer was in the United States in the early 1890s. Haydn’s String Quartet in D Major is primarily referred to as The Lark because of the violin’s high bird-like melody at the very beginning. And Mozart’s String Quartet in B Flat Major is known as The Hunt because the music in the first movement was said to evoke the sound and the mood of the chase.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Founded in 1996, the fully-professional orchestra is led by Stewart Kershaw, internationally-renowned conductor and former music director of the Pacific Northwest Ballet Orchestra.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
