Marking their 19th visit to Segerstrom Center for the Arts, audience favorite Emerson String Quartet returns to Samueli Theater on Thursday, October 22 at 8 p.m. in a program featuring Haydn’s dazzling String Quartet in D minor “Fifths,” Bartók’s String Quartet No. 4 and the rarely performed String Quartet No. 15 in G major by Schubert.
“The group remains one of our best chamber ensembles, not merely precise but expressive and intelligent to the last ounce,” writes The Orange County Register. The Emerson String Quartet includes Eugene Drucker, violin; Philip Setzer, violin; Lawrence Dutton, viola and Paul Watkins, cello. A free Preview Talk with musicologist and author Herbert Glass will take place at 7:15 p.m. in Samueli Theater.
