The award-winning Telegraph Quartet, described by The New York Times as being “full of elegance and pinpoint control,” is presented in two performances on Monday, April 8 and Tuesday April 9, 2024 – both at 7:30pm. Both concerts will feature the Bay Area ensemble performing a program featuring three works that are shaped by immensely personal experiences and relationships, written during the 19th and 20th centuries: Fanny Mendelssohn’s String Quartet in E-flat major (1834), George Walker’s String Quartet No. 1 Lyric (1946) and Dvořák’s String Quartet No. 14 in A-flat Major, Op. 105 B. 193 (1895).
Described by the San Francisco Chronicle as, “an incredibly valuable addition to the cultural landscape” and “powerfully adept… with a combination of brilliance and subtlety,” the Telegraph Quartet was awarded the prestigious 2016 Walter W. Naumburg Chamber Music Award and the Grand Prize at the 2014 Fischoff Chamber Music Competition.
