Opening the season with a sumptuous program of celebrated quartets by Haydn, Busoni, and Brahms, the Brentano String Quartet returns to the Series with music-making described by the London Independent as “Passionate, uninhibited and spellbinding.” Since 1992, the Quartet has appeared throughout the world to popular and critical acclaim: The New York Times extolled “luxuriously warm sound [and] yearning lyricism”; and The Philadelphia Inquirer praised it for “seemingly infallible instincts for finding the center of gravity in every phrase and musical gesture.”
