Rubin Goldmark, nephew of Carl Goldmark whose 'Country Wedding' Symphony and Overture 'Sakuntala' are occasionally broadcast, was also a well-known teacher and composer. Born in New York in 1872, he died there in 1936. Most of Rubin Goldmark's works were for orchestra, but he also wrote a piano trio, a violin sonata, and the present Piano Quartet in A. The last mentioned won the Paderewski Prize for chamber music in the competition of 1909.

Conductor, Gideon Fagan The key of G minor appears to have had a tragic significance for Mozart. At any rate the first movements of the G minor Piano Quartet, the G minor String Quartet, and this great symphony are all tragic in character. Yet, strange to say, the true nature of the symphony was long misunderstood.
Mozart's contemporaries made no mistake about it, but it is characteristic of the nineteenth century's complete lack of comprehension of pre-Beethovenian music that the G minor Symphony was commonly regarded as light and joyous. No less a critic than Schumann could speak of the symphony's ' light and Grecian grace '. Nowadays we understand Mozart a little better ; the fire, passion, and pathos of the work are unmistakable.
