Event details

Tickets for this concert are currently only available as part of a subscription series. Individual tickets go on sale in February 2024.

Dubbed “powerhouse” performers by Classical Voice America, the Verona Quartet makes their Festival debut with this rich and wide-ranging recital. The last of Mozart’s charming “Milanese quartets” opens the program. Britten’s delicate and ephemeral 3rd quartet is full of character and color. Giuseppe Verdi’s only string quartet transports listeners into the world of Italian opera on a small, yet potent scale.

Acclaimed as an “outstanding ensemble…cohesive yet full of temperament” (The New York Times), the Verona Quartet has firmly established itself amongst the most distinguished ensembles on the chamber music scene today. The group’s singular sense of purpose most recently earned them Chamber Music America’s coveted 2020 Cleveland Quartet Award, and a reputation for its “bold interpretive strength, robust characterization and commanding resonance” (Calgary Herald). The Quartet serves on the faculty of the Oberlin College and Conservatory as the Quartet-in-Residence. In addition to its position at Oberlin, the Quartet holds residencies at Nova Scotia’s Lunenburg Academy of Music Performance and North Carolina’s Chamber Orchestra of the Triangle. As committed advocates of diverse programming, the Verona Quartet curates the UpClose Chamber Music Series on behalf of the COT, electrifying audiences from concert halls to craft breweries with their “sensational, powerhouse performance[s]” (Classical Voice America).
