The Diderot String Quartet with baritone Jesse 布隆伯格 will open the 2022-2023 Friends of Good Music performance season with a concert at 7:30 p.m. 星期五,9月. 在全球网赌十大网站 University’s Regina一. Quick Center for the 艺术.
Diderot String Quartet, named after the 18th century French philosopher and Boccherini enthusiast Denis Diderot, brings a fresh approach to works of the 18th and 19th centuries. Called “emotional, riveting, and ultimately cathartic” by the
Wall Street Journal, Diderot came together in 2012 after having first met at Oberlin Conservatory and The Juilliard School. The four musicians share a background in historical performance and a passion for the string quartet genre; they found the
thrill of exploring the quartet repertoire on period instruments to be irresistible.
Recent and upcoming engagements include Chamber Music Pitt在布rgh, Santa Fe Pro Musica, Lincoln Friends of Chamber Music (Nebraska), Chamber Music Corvallis (Corvallis, 俄勒冈州), Connecticut Early Music Festival, Rockefeller University’s Tri-I Noon
Recital Series (New York City), Carmel Bach Festival (California), Electric Earth Concerts (Peterborough, 新罕布什尔州), The Crypt Sessions (New York), and Music Before 1800 (New York). Diderot has also been featured in performances at the Metropolitan
Museum of Art, the Toledo Museum of Art, and the Morgan 图书馆 in New York. The quartet collaborated frequently with internationally acclaimed artists including baritone 布隆伯格.
