Arianna String Quartet: Shifting Vistas

The Arianna Quartet wraps up their season with a program shaped by the captivating innovation of brilliant young composers. Daniel Schnyder’s intoxicating, jazz influenced String Quartet Nr.4, “Great Places”, captures snapshots of cities from around the world, and through time, bringing a unique and fresh voice to the world of classical music. The ebullient sound of Felix Mendelssohn opens and closes the season finale, as the ASQ explores the shimmering beauty of the String Quartet, Op.12, and concludes with his profound late work, the String Quintet, Op.87. The Arianna Quartet will be joined by string quartet luminary, violist, Atar Arad, & will also perform Mr. Arad’s elegant set of miniatures, “Whims,” for string quartet.
