Music Mountain

Mondays, 11am

Program Website: http://www.musicmountain.org/

The 2010 season of Music Mountain’s chamber music presents established String Quartets with dedicated musicians committed to the teaching and performance of chamber music. They come from all over the world and represent a broad range of traditions and styles. Some of these performers keep coming back to play for many years, and others will be making their Music Mountain debuts. This year we will be presenting music by the Avalon String Quartet, Arianna String Quartet, St. Petersburg String Quartet, Penderecki String Quartet and the Harlem String Quartet among others.

Music Mountain brings together the finest quartets and assisting artists and the most comprehensive repertory in a series of concerts each year. Music Mountain presents the great quartet and quintet masterpieces by leading performers before a public audience by performers from many different nations around the world.
