The Isidore Quartet, first-prize winner of the 2022 Banff International String Quartet Competition and recipient of a 2023 Avery Fisher Career Grant, will play its first Vancouver concert on April 15 for Friends of Chamber Music. This youthful New York-based group draws on the vibrant string quartet tradition to cultivate joyful, accessible, and intimate experiences.

The evening will start with Mozart’s beloved String Quartet No. 19 in C major, “Dissonance”, named for its strangely modern opening bars before the music returns to a more Classical sound. This will be followed by contemporary American composer Billy Childs’s String Quartet No. 3, “Unrequited”. The musicians will finish with Beethoven’s first late-period quartet, his passionate String Quartet No. 12 in E-flat major, Op. 127.

Enjoy the Isidore Quartet’s exciting musical artistry, featuring exuberant interplay and gorgeous harmonic sweetness, in concert at the Vancouver Playhouse.

Tickets are available from Friends of Chamber Music.
