Quartetto di Cremona

Sunday, Nov. 3, 4 p.m.
Weis Center Concert Hall

Winner of the 2019 Franco Buitoni Award, Quartetto di Cremona is among the world’s preeminent string quartets, noted for its lustrous sound, refined musicianship and stylistic versatility. According to The Strad, its Lincoln Center debut in 2022 “was distinguished by splendid balance, abundant color and a relaxed mastery of all the musical elements.”

The quartet was established in 2000 at the Accademia Walter Stauffer in Cremona, Italy. Now in its 23rd season, Quartetto di Cremona has toured extensively in Europe, the U.S., South America and Asia; appeared at leading festivals, and performed regularly on radio and television broadcasts, including on the RAI, BBC, Westdeutscher Rundfunk and the Australian Broadcasting Corporation. The group’s extensive repertoire encompasses key masterworks from Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven and Schubert; essential late nineteenth- and twentieth-century literature, and contemporary works by Osvaldo Golijov, Helmut Lachemann, Fabio Vacchi, Silvia Colasanti, Nimrod Borenstein and Kalevi Aho. The quartet is also known for its performances of work by Italian composers, including Verdi, Respighi and Boccherini.
