This week on Cleveland Ovations, we continue presenting highlights from CityMusic Cleveland's extraordinary 2020-21 season, featuring chamber masterworks by women and Black composers. You'll hear Ellen Taaffe Zwilich's Quintet for Violin, Viola, Cello, Double Bass and Piano (the same scoring that Schubert employed for "Trout" Quintet), Han for String Quartet by South Korean-born composer Jungyoon Wie, and the Clarinet Quintet in F-sharp minor Op 10 by Samuel Coleridge-Taylor. The performances were recorded in April and June of 2021 in the Shrine Church of St. Stanislaus in Cleveland's historic Slavic Village.
