Sometimes a quiet gesture says the most. "It’s the Thought That Counts" explores the idea that intention - whether in composition, character, or artistic form - can carry deep meaning. Each piece on this program reflects a composer’s thoughtful voice: through reflection, resilience, subtlety, or wry humor. From bluesy introspection to understated elegance, from daring invention to quiet rebellion, these works invite us to listen closely - not for grandiosity, but for depth.

The program will include William Grant Still's Blues from Lennox Avenue and Quit Dat Fool’nish; Jennifer Higdon's Nocturne; Rebecca Clarke's Sonata for Viola and Piano; and Ludwig van Beethoven's String Quintet in C Major, Op. 29.
