Danish String Quartet
Thursday, February 18th at 7:30 pm – 9 pm
2nd Summit's partnership with Friends of Chamber Music gives us the inside scoop that this concert will likely sell out so get your tickets early!
Winners of the LÉONIE SONNING MUSIC PRIZE 2025, the Danish String Quarttet, in the words of the Chairman of the Board of the Léonie Sonning Music Foundation, “Besides being four outstanding instrumentalists, the Danish String Quartet is a unique musical collective with international influence. With a performance style marked by great authority and sensitivity, where classical chamber music, brand new compositions, and Nordic folk music are equally integrated, they have created an original musical identity that serves as an inspiration to other musicians and unleashes musical energy beyond genres.”
“A concert that was as comprehensively rewarding as any chamber music performance in recent memory… Do not lose track of this group: Even by today’s high standards, it offers something very special.” — The Boston Globe.
There will be a pre-concert talk from 6:30 - 7:00 in the Newman Center lobby.
Listening excerpts and interviews with The Danish String Quartet can be found on Friends of Chamber Music's YouTube channel.
