Artist Series Concert: Russian Renaissance

The quartet, described by Arts at Michigan as “one of the finest displays of musicianship in the world,” recently won the $100,000 Grand Prize at the 2017 M-Prize International Chamber Music Competition at the University of Michigan. Its mission is to take traditional folk music to the next level with modern, vibrant, and enticing new sounds.

The ensemble marries tradition and modernity, creating a fusion of styles and genres and delivering astounding crossover experiences, with programs that include Bach and Tchaikovsky with Duke Ellington and Django Reinhardt. Russian Renaissance searches for new expressive techniques and genres to complement their beloved Russian folk music.

Join us before the concert at 6:30pm for Grace Notes, a pre-concert conversation.
