A new piano quintet by composer Gernot Wolfgang, New England Travelogue, will have its world premiere on Monday, July 27, at the Old Whaling Church and again on Tuesday, July 28, at the Chilmark Community Center, as part of a program presented by pianist Delores Stevens, artistic director of the Martha’s Vineyard Chamber Music Society, and the Eclipse String Quartet.

In his notes for this concert program, Mr. Wolfgang describes his composition as a set of reminiscences about places in New England he has visited over the years. The four movements of the quintet are Vineyard Reggae, “inspired by a summer evening in Edgartown;” Vermont Magic, recalling a moonlit ride through a pine forest in the Northeast Kingdom; Inman Square, inspired by the excitement of the jazz club scene in Cambridge some 20 years ago; and Mount Desert Island, which recalls the serenity of Maine’s Arcadia National Park.

The Eclipse String Quartet — comprising violinists Sara Parkins and Sarah Thornblade, violist Alma Lisa Fernandez and cellist Maggie Parkins — is a Los Angeles-based ensemble dedicated to performing the music of our time. Their Vineyard concerts will reach back into the classical canon to present Felix Mendelssohn’s Quartet in D Major (written in 1838), otherwise concentrating on compositions from the 20th century: the lyrical G Song, composed (originally as part of a film score) by Terry Riley; Four for Tango by Astor Piazzola, George Gershwin’s Lullaby, and New England Travelogue.

The chamber music society’s series will resume on August 10 and 11 with a program featuring Stanley Drucker, the legendary artist who recently retired as principal clarinetist of the New York Philharmonic. All concerts of the chamber society are at 8 p.m. Tickets are $30, and students are admitted free.
