The Candlelight Concert Society presents:
American String Quartet and Ariel String Quartet
Saturday, January 28, 2012 8:00 PM, Smith Theatre Pre-concert discussion 7:15pm
Two great quartets combine to perform the Mendelssohn Octet. The American String Quartet was formed over 35 years ago when its original members were students at The Juilliard School. The Quartet was launched by winning both the Coleman Competition and the Naumburg Chamber Music Award in the same year. Now, the American is internationally recognized as one of the world's foremost quartets.
The Ariel String Quartet, originally from Israel, performs with the intensity and passion of a young quartet, and the conviction and cohesiveness of veterans. The American Record Guide describes the Ariel as "a consummate ensemble gifted with utter musicality and remarkable interpretive power." Dedicated to upholding the grand tradition of world-class string quartet playing, the Quartet feels a deep connection to the staples of string quartet literature, while also understanding the importance of exploring music by living composers.
