The Harlem Quartet returns to the VCC stage with “Echoes of Inspiration,” string quartets by Beethoven (Quartet in A major, op. 18, no. 5), Benjamin Britten (his ethereal Quartet no. 2), plus Pulitzer winner Carolyn Shaw’s “Entr’acte” and Cuban conductor/composer Guido López-Gavilán’s rhythmic “Cuarteto en Guaguancó.” The Harlem Quartet has been called “fresh, bracing, and intelligent.” Come find out why!
Audience members are invited to on-stage conversations with the artists and former NEPM host John Montanari, one hour before the concert.
If you’ve never experienced live classical music before, you’re missing the excitement! You don’t need to be an expert, and you don’t need to dress up. And please bring the kids!
