Featuring virtuoso instrumentalists from across Europe, Chiaroscuro Quartet has captivated fans and critics around the world in performances that are bursting with fearless imagination, thrilling passion, and flawless execution. Don’t miss their eagerly anticipated BEMF début, which highlights a brilliant selection of string quartets that are all written in minor keys, yet have greatly contrasting characters, from shocking to passionate.
This program will also be presented in New York City on Thursday, March 23 at the Morgan Library & Museum.
Returing to in-person concerts over the last year has been both an honor and responsibility. As the global pandemic evolves, our response will continue to adapt. The health and safety of our audience, employees, and artists remains our highest priority. Out of concern for those in our community who are still vulnerable, some COVID-19 protocols will stay in place for the coming season.
“The playing is intense and refined, exploratory and poised.”
Pre-Concert Talk
In lieu of Pre-Concert Talks at the venue, we will present online Pre-Concert Videos with informative discussions featuring scholars and artists the week before each program—FREE to watch on YouTube or at BEMF.org.
