Alexander
String Quartet
with Joyce Yang, piano
Widely admired for its interpretations
of Beethoven, Mozart and Shostakovich, the Alexander Quartet is also an
important advocate of new music. They are based in San Francisco, where
they direct the chamber music program at San Francisco State University
and are Ensemble in Residence at San Francisco Performances. For us they
will play Mozart and Kodaly, and will be joined by Van Cliburn silver
medalist Joyce Yang in the Dvorak Quintet.
