The critically acclaimed and fast-rising Aizuri Quartet is a "string sisterhood of Juilliard and Curtis graduates—each one a magnificent musician in her own right …Even their name derives from art: aizuri-e, is a predominantly blue style of Japanese woodblock printing noted for its vibrancy, craft, and beauty. "The Aizuri Quartet … is in full possession of that most elusive of string quartet qualities: the balance between charisma of the individual and cohesion of the collective."The Philadelphia Inquirer

Music and Mayhem
Saturday, October 21, 7 pm
It has been said that all art is political. In this concert, the Aizuri Quartet examines musical compositions written during a time of political upheaval. Ludwig van Beethoven's Opus 74, the "Harp" quartet, Steve Reich's "Different Trains," and Sofia Gubaidulina's String Quartet No. 4 were all written in response to sociopolitical turmoil or oppression
