Artist Recital Series: The Emerson String Quartet

After 47 years of touring, dozens of recordings, and the highest accolades for their definitive performances of the string quartet literature, the Emerson String Quartet opens the Oberlin Artist Recital Series to perform one of their final “Farewell Season” concerts.

“At the end we all sat riveted, not daring to applaud. At that moment, the accusation that classical music is ‘irrelevant’ seemed more absurd than ever.” —The Telegraph
