We just had an Arnica Quartet dinner meeting the other night to nail down a couple of concert dates and also our repertoire for the coming season.<\/p>\n
We’ve got two concerts lined up so far for the Fall, the first a noon concert at Pacific University on October 3rd, where we’ll be playing the Haydn “Lark” Quartet, Shostakovich’s Eighth Quartet, and two short arrangements by Shostakovich of music from his staged works (The Golden Age, <\/em>and Lady Macbeth)<\/em>. <\/em><\/p>\n We have another concert in Salem, Oregon on November 12th @ 3 p.m. which will comprise the Haydn “Lark”, Shosty 8, and Beethoven’s monumental op. 130 (with alternate non-fugue finale)<\/em>.<\/p>\n As for the spring, our repertoire will be the Janacek 2nd (Intimate Letters), Beethoven op. 18 no. 6, and the Debussy Quartet. We’re kind of hitting all of the stylistic genres this year, should be interesting!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We just had an Arnica Quartet dinner meeting the other night to nail down a couple of concert dates and also our repertoire for the coming season.
