 t Music presents a chamber music concert featuring two major piano quintet
 s: the New England premiere of Quinteto sobre los Poemas de Carlos Pintado
  by Pamela Marshall\, and Piano Quintet No. 2 by Louise Farrenc\, written 
 in 1840.   The performers are a stellar group of Boston musicians: Carmen 
 Rodr&iacute\;guez-Peralta\, piano\; Abigail Karr\, violin\; Sarah Darling\
 , viola\; Rafael Popper-Keizer\, cello\; Susan Hagen\, double bass.  Each 
 of the four movements of Marshall's Quinteto is inspired by a poem by Cuba
 n poet Carlos Pintado from Miami. Marshall's music is atmospheric and expr
 essive\, at times brooding and dark and at others sparkling\, to match the
  poems. You can hear influences of Messiaen in the piano writing and hints
  of nature sounds. The first movement\, 'Nights in Mortefontaine'\, opens 
 as if in a jungle\, with abrupt gestures from the strings illustrating Pin
 tado's words 'nights of fierce birds and tigers hidden in the dark'.   Lou
 ise Farrenc was highly regarded in France for her piano playing and her ch
 amber music compositions. The Piano Quintet No. 2\, Op. 31 is an extravaga
 nza of piano virtuosity with beautiful ensemble writing for the strings.\n
