On May 1, the Jupiter Quartet joins forces with the Jasper String Quartet to perform Mendelssohn’s Octet in E-flat, Op. 20 for Ringwood Friends of Chamber Music. Their recording of the work was released in February 2021 on Marquis Classics and praised by All Music as “one of the best versions [of Mendelssohn’s Octet] available, with a crackling finale and plenty of energy throughout.” The concert also includes Florence Price’s String Quartet in G major performed by the Jasper, and George Walker’s moving Lyric for String Quartet performed by the Jupiter.
The broadcast begins at 8pm Eastern / 5pm Pacific.
Tickets are free, registration is required.
