Abeo Quartet | 2023 – 24 Ernst Stiefel String Quartet-in-Residence

The Abeo Quartet continues its residency with an exquisite program including works by two late-Romantic Russian composers, Alexander Glazunov and Dmitri Shostakovich, and a composer of today, Reena Esmail, who beautifully straddles the worlds of Indian and Western classical music. The climax of the program is Franz Schubert’s “Death and the Maiden,” a powerful work showcasing the composer’s mastery of melody, harmonic exploration, and the emotional depth characteristic of the Romantic period. You’ll leave this concert wondering when you can hear the amazing Abeo Quartet at Caramoor again. (Hint: Summer 2024!)
