Jerusalem Quartet
Intensity and refinement are hallmarks of one of the world’s most electrifying string quartets.
Adept at balancing individual expression with respectful renderings of a composer’s work, the Jerusalem Quartet brings an evening of Dmitri Shostakovich’s searingly intense music to Hancher’s intimate onstage experience. The ensemble will perform two Shostakovich quartets in the first concert and two different quartets by the composer in the second concert. Whether you attend one or both sets, you will marvel at the quartet’s stunning depth of expression and warm, full sound.
