SF Performances Presents Calidore String Quartet

SEE EVENT DETAILS
San Francisco Performances is pleased to welcome back the Calidore String Quartet after their San Francisco debut in 2018. The Quartet regularly performs in the most prestigious venues throughout North America, Europe and Asia such as Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, Wigmore Hall, Berlin Konzerthaus, Cologne Philharmonie, Seoul's Kumho Arts Hall and at many significant festivals, including Verbier, Ravinia, Mostly Mozart, Music@Menlo, Rheingau, East Neuk and Festspiele Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. Within two years of their founding, the Calidore String Quartet won grand prizes in virtually all the major U.S. chamber music competitions.

As proteges of the Emerson Quartet, the Calidore String Quartet performed a joint program with the Emersons at the Ravinia Festival as well as major series in Portland, Ann Arbor and Southern California. In addition to their Emerson collaboration the Calidore also performed with cellist David Finckel, pianists Wu Han and Alessio Bax and violist Roberto Diaz.

In Summer 2018 the Calidore String Quartet made its debut at the BBC Proms with a world-premiere by pulitzer-prize winning composer Caroline Shaw. The Calidore returned to the Music@Menlo Festival and debut at the Cheltenham Festival (U.K.) Additionally they continue to serve as string quartet-in-residence at the Innsbrook Institute, Center Stage Strings, the Bellingham Festival of Music and will be directors of chamber music for the Bravo! Festival San Diego where they will mentor the most promising musical talent from China.

They will perform a program of Haydn, Shaw and Beethoven.

$70/$55/$45.
