The young musicians of Ensemble ACJW—all of whom are fellows or alumni of The Academy’s postgraduate program—open their Weill Recital Hall series this season with a concert that includes a chamber-music favorite by Tchaikovsky. While at work in Florence on his opera Queen of Spades in 1890, Tchaikovsky wrote out a melody and put it aside; back in St. Petersburg, he used that tune in the splendid slow movement of his sextet Souvenir de Florence.

The “fun, fearless, and effing great” (Time Out New York) Ensemble ACJW gives the New York premiere of a new piece by Missy Mazzoli, one of a small group of composers in the Big Apple whose work is “consistently inventive” (The New York Times). “I want people to feel, ‘Oh, this sounds familiar, I think I know where it’s going’—then to be continually surprised,” says Mazzoli. She’s a perfect match for the musically adventurous and always-entertaining Academy musicians, who also perform music by Poulenc.
