“The Calder’s sound is American—big, bold, firm, clean.”
–Mark Swed, Los Angeles Times
The continued health and relevance of the string quartet is ensured in the hands of these dynamic young players, who expand the boundaries of chamber music by creating insightful pairings of the traditional and the contemporary. With broad command of the beloved repertoire, boundless curiosity for new works, and praise by Alan Rich of the LA Weekly for its “splendor and substance,” the former Graduate Resident Quartet of the Juilliard School leads the new generation of classical players. $29, CMA members $27.
