Harlem Quartet performs at VCU’s Rennolds Series

New York-based Harlem Quartet, has been hailed in the Cincinnati Enquirer for “bringing a new attitude to classical music, one that is fresh, bracing and intelligent.” Harlem Quartet has three distinctive characteristics: diverse programming that combines music from the standard string quartet canon with jazz, Latin, and contemporary works; a collaborative approach to performance that is continually broadening the ensemble’s repertoire and audience reach through artistic partnerships with other musicians from the classical and jazz worlds; and an ongoing commitment to residency activity and other forms of educational outreach. Last here at VCU just a few years ago as the Covid pandemic was winding down, their concert was so excellent that we decided to have them back so that as many people as possible could experience their artistry and unique programming!
