Chamber Music Quad Cities' 2026-27 concert season opens with "Swan Song," the name given to Franz Schubert's final song collection, assembled and published shortly after his death in 1828. Baritone and Quad-City native Nathaniel Sullivan will return to CMQC to sing this hauntingly beautiful set of songs. Violinist Stephanie Zyzak, praised for her sensitivity and soulfulness, will offer the Romance by Amy Beach, and will join Greg and Thomas Sauer for a performance of Beethoven's final piano trio, the "Archduke."
The concert will take place at the Trinity Episcopal Parish Hall in Davenport on Sunday, November 15 at 3:00 p.m.

Chamber Music Quad Cities—known familiarly as CMQC—presents classical concert music at affordable prices in comfortable settings. An outgrowth of many years of concert-giving in the Quad Cities by Davenport natives Gregory and Thomas Sauer, CMQC was founded in 1994. Together with pianist Robert Satterlee, the Sauer brothers established Chamber Music Quad Cities as a non-profit, 501(c)3 corporation in that year. Support from the community has been consistent to this day. Violinist David Bowlin assumed the artistic direction of CMQC in 2007; upon his departure in the summer of 2017, the Sauer brothers returned as Artistic Co-Directors.
