SOME ENCHANTED
A&M audience
enjoys music
of father, son
By Shane Hall
Reviewer
Chamber music came to Texas
A&M Friday night as the father and
son duo of pianist Paul Hersh and
his sort Stefan, a violinist, performed
in Rudder Theater. The concert was
presented by the University Cham
ber Series in conjunction with MSC
OPAS “Focus on the Performing
Arts” week.
The music on tap for the evening
was the sonatas of German com
poser Johannes Brahms.
“Sonata No. 1 in G Major” began
the concert as the duo performed
this piece with exacting musicality.
Review
The two concentrated intensely with
their eyes focused on the sheet music
at all times. The intensity rose as pi
ano and violin combined to bring the
third movement of the piece to a
rousing conclusion, which was fol
lowed by enthusiastic applause from
the audience.
Paul Hersh, who has performed
with the Boston Symphony, the New
York Philharmonic and various
chamber groups, is a brilliant pianist
whose virtuosity is well compli
mented by the intensity with which
he plays.
Violinist Stefan Hersh is a highly
skilled technician who also brings a
strong, emotional feel to his perfor
mance. He is concertmaster of the
San Francisco Chamber Orchestra
and also performs regularly at va
rious chamber music festivals.
After an intermission, the duo
took to the stage again and after a
quick tuning of the instruments, be
gan the opening notes of “Sonata
No. 2 in A Major.” Here, the dy
namic harmony of the duo clearly
was demonstrated as both instru
ments could be heard distinctly, but

neither dominated the other. The
renditions of the sonata’s three
movements by the Hershes was sim
ply brilliant as they played the music
with the same calm and melodic na
ture that the piece is marked by. L'n-
fortunately, the two musicians
seemed to lack the intensity that they
had demonstrated so remarkably
well on “Sonata No. 1 in G Major.”
Nevertheless, the light perfor
mance, as well as the entire concert,
was met with a warm reception on
the part of the audience, who for the
most part remained motionless while
the music was played, seeming!)
mesmerized by the impressive dis
play of musicianship.
Af ter the long round of applause
that followed the second sonata on
the evening’s program, the Hershes
began what would prove to be the
highlight of the evening, die four-
movement “Sonata No. 3 in D Min
or,” which was Brahms’ final violin
sonata.
I he duo gave the first movement,
“Allegro,” a lively, rousing treatment
that contrasted sharply with the slow
and meditative nature of the second
movement.
