Highlights

Join the FSQ for

The Complete String Quartets

of Ludwig van Beethoven

Fall 2008  

  The Fry Street Quartet & Robert Winter

Concert Cycle: October 2-4 & 9-11, 2008 Presented by The Caine School of the Arts College of Humanities, Arts, & Social Sciences Utah State University

“The seventeen string quartets of Beethoven are to chamber music what the plays of Shakespeare are to drama and what the self-portraits of Rembrandt are to portraiture.”* Beethoven's quartets go beyond even his symphonies in the scope of his output, and provide an incredible overview of his creative development.

Any Beethoven Cycle is a rare event, but here in Logan, Utah the Caine School of the Arts is thrilled to present this Beethoven Cycle performed by the Fry Street Quartet alongside lectures with renowned scholar/pianist/media author Robert Winter, as well as additional lectures, demonstrations, and supplementary events for an unforgettable journey into the world of Beethoven. Mark your calendars now!
