In the organizer's words:

With chamber music passion and tonal precision, the Schumann Quartet is one of the most exciting string quartets of our time. In this program, the classical clarity of Mozart's D major Quartet meets the expressive sound world of Amy Beach, one of the most important American composers of the early 20th century. The program concludes with Brahms' passionate C minor Quartet, a work of great emotional density that shines with particular intensity in the ensemble's interpretation.
