Witness the evolution of fame, notoriety, and acknowledgment through these tour-de-force pieces by powerhouse composers: quartets and quintets by Joseph Bologne, Johannes Brahms, and Florence Price performed by the Carpe Diem String Quartet and pianist Michelle Schumann.

Joseph Bologne: Concertante Quartet No. 5 in G Major
Florence Price: Quintet in A Minor for Strings and Piano
