Jupiter Quartet

  • CSUS Capistrano Hall 6000 J Street Sacramento, CA, 95819 United States (map)

Winners of both the Banff and Fischoff Competitions, and recipients of an Avery Fisher Career Grant, the Jupiter Quarter has performed around the globe and become a major creative voice in chamber music since its founding in 2001. Their playing style combines an accessible warmth with deep musical knowledge and an adventurous spirit. The New Yorker described them as “an ensemble of eloquent intensity” and “one of the mainstays of the American chamber-music scene.” Their program for us will include Dvorak’s Viola Quintet in E-flat Major, excerpts from Wynton Marsalis’s String Quartet No. 1, and a piece by composer Su Lian Tan.
