2001
marks the second year of MAGISTERRA
the Iowa International Chamber Music Festival.
he
festival teams renowned chamber musicians from around the world
with stellar faculty artists from The University of Iowa School
of Music for seven delightfully varied concerts.One of the many
distinguishing features of MAGISTERRA
is the repertoire which includes rarely heard masterworks by some
of the world s great masters on the same program with musical
gems by little known composers. The music is played by a kaleidoscope
of musicians.
ather
than a group of musicians who play an entire concert together,most
MAGISTERRA artists perform in all the
concerts sometimes in duos,trios, quartets, even octets. Every concert
features different configurations of musicians and each evening
is different.

violins; Vladimir Mendelssohn and William Preucil, violas; Terry
King and Martti Rousi, cellos; and Juhani Lagerspetz, piano.
