Sometimes musicians create an atypical instrument combination simply because they have similar tastes or just like working together. Not so here – there's no sense of anything forced, or absent.

Kudos to these musicians and the Chamber Music Society for dusting off an extraordinary creation by Joachim Raff and giving it a fair and muscular airing.

There's a lot of pain and grief here, but it has inspired a suite of eclectic and eccentric chamber music that's almost operatic.

The Curtis on Tour chamber music project brought some of the Curtis Institute's best young musicians to 92Y.

One of the finest flutists of our time performed a set of striking modern works from her new album 'Through Broken Time.'

Dingler smoothly fuses Ethiopian musical traditions with jazz, while Torres's winning new album is a feast for both heart and mind.

Much of Jethro Tull's second album still stands up, so to speak. The bright nasality of the hyperactive mandolin on "Fat Man," the blues-rock/progressive fusion of "Nothing is Easy," and the dark psychedelia of "We Used to Know" are all of their time, yet in the new mixes they leap urgently from the speakers. A 1969 Stockholm concert and a booklet packed with reminiscences and commentary help make this new edition something Tull fans will value.
