“The sound of the quartet is warm and rich, the phrasings distinctive and expressive, among the best of the quartets of our day.”

Dear friends,
Now that the cold weather has arrived in Minnesota, we have moved our performances safely indoors, and are pre-recording our concerts at Antonello Hall in Minneapolis on Tuesdays and broadcasting them "Live" on Fridays each month. October's "World's Apart" featured an enchanting new work by Taiwanese composer Lu Yun.
Our next concert is on Friday, November 27, 2020, at 7pm. Quartets by Schubert, Ginastera, and a 2005 work entitled "Parks" (dedicated to the memory of Rosa Parks) by Black composer Daniel Bernard Roumain, are on the program.
Franz Schubert: Quartetsatz (1820)
Daniel Bernard Roumain: Quartet No.5 "Parks" (2005)
Alberto Ginastera: String Quartet No.2 (1958)
