Sunday, October 22, 2017 – 7 pm – Kohl Début
Our 35th Season opens with the Music at Kohl début of the multiple-award-winning Calidore String Quartet, who made international headlines last year as the winner of the $100,000 Grand-Prize of the inaugural M-Prize International Chamber Music Competition, the largest prize for chamber music in the world. Currently in residence with the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, the quartet regularly performs in the most prestigious venues throughout North America, Europe and Asia.
