Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum: Catalyst String Quartet
The Catalyst String Quartet returns to the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum after their astonishing Gardner debut last season. The quartet’s program features Concertante Quartets No. 2 in G minor (1777) by the legendary violinist-composer Joseph Bologne (Chevalier de Saint-Georges), a superb swordsman who led an all-Black regiment in the French Revolution, alongside Dora Pejačević's splendid String Quartet in C major from 1922—re-introducing Gardner audiences to the work of this late-Romantic Croatian composer—and Beethoven's monumental String Quartet No. 15 in A minor, Op. 132.
The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum’s Fall 2025 Weekend Concert Series features an eleven-concert autumn season curated by Abrams Curator of Music George Steel running from September 13 through November 23, 2025. The fall season showcases world-class artists in the Museum’s extraordinary Calderwood Hall—a 300-seat “sonic cube” with three levels of balconies designed so that 80% of seats are front row, creating a uniquely intense and intentional listening experience. Dating to 1927, the Gardner’s Weekend Concert Series is the longest running museum music program in the country.
