St. Lawrence String Quartet

Pre-Concert Talk 2 pm

DETAILS:

Since winning both the Banff International String Quartet Competition and Young Concert Artists International Auditions in 1992, the St. Lawrence String Quartet has delighted audiences with its spontaneous, passionate, and dynamic performances. The Quartet makes a return appearance in Rockport playing quartets by two historic masters of the art form and a commissioned work by a Boston-based composer.

“The St. Lawrence is first and foremost about risk taking: about playing on the emotional edge; about performing, not to ‘get it right,' but because the music has something to tell us that we cannot live without; something that could make you change your life.” - The Toronto Globe & Mail
