INDIANAPOLIS A new Indianapolis based-string quartet with violinists Zach De Pue and Austin Hartman, violist Michael Strauss and cellist Austin Huntington will make its debut in the Ruth Lilly Performance Hall at the Christel DeHaan Fine Arts Center at the University of Indianapolis on Mon., Nov. 7, at 7:30 p.m. The quartet will be joined by internationally recognized pianist Orli Shaham.
This is the first of two featured performances by the quartet on this season’s Faculty Artist Concert Series at UIndy. The Nov. 7 program will open with Mendelssohn’s turbulent String Quartet in F Minor, Op. 80. It originally bore the subtitle “Requiem for Fanny” and was written in honor of his deceased sister. The evening will culminate with Ms. Shaham joining the quartet for a performance of Brahms’ beloved Piano Quintet, Op. 34.
Guest pianist Orli Shaham is a consummate musician recognized for her grace and vitality. She has established an impressive international reputation as one of today’s most gifted pianists.
