In June 2025, WWCMF celebrated the 240th anniversary of Mozart’s Piano Quartet in G minor, K. 479 (1785), a stormy affair that eventually finds its way to a joyful conclusion. Therefore, in an uncontroversial example of “equal time,” we now celebrate the 240th anniversary of the G minor’s younger sibling, the Piano Quartet in E flat, K. 493 (1786). And we’re in luck that virtuoso pianist Oksana Ejokina returns to WWCMF to carry the day along with Festival mainstays Maria Sampen (violin), Norbert Lewandowski (cello) and Founder & Artistic Director, Timothy Christie (viola). Happy anniversary K. 493! 240 years old and still as fresh as the day the ink dried.
