CMSCVA continues its 17th season with a cherished piece of 19th century chamber music, the celebratory Octet in F major by Franz Schubert, and the world premiere of “The Eight Immortals and the Sea” by Georgia-based composer and conductor Shuying Li. CMSCVA commissioned this work for eight players who each musically represent one of the legendary Immortals, famed mythological figures from the composer’s native China. CMSCVA regulars violinist Suliman Tekalli, violist Celia Hatton, clarinetist David Lemelin are joined by new friends including cellist Seth Parker Woods and horn player Kevin Newton.
