Dmitri Atapine, co-artistic director of Apex Concerts, points out that the musicians in the concert represent the legacy, the present, and the future of chamber music. 'We have with us two brilliant violin soloists, Benjamin Beilman and Maria Ioudenitch … This is the present of chamber music. We also are featuring for the first time on our stage the Viano String Quartet, which are recent recipients of the Avery Fisher Career Grant Award. They are the future, so to say, of chamber music. He represents, as I like to say, the legacy and the grandeur of chamber music.'
