Apple Hill String Quartet- Music in Bass Hall

Apple Hill String Quartet returns to Bass Hall for their annual spring concert! The evening features works by Franz Schubert, Amy Beach, and Apple Hill alumna Sato Matsui. The Quartet will be joined by special guest Judith Gordon, piano.

Called “dashing and extraordinary” by The Strad Magazine, the Apple Hill String Quartet are the Artistic Directors and resident musicians at the Apple Hill Center for Chamber Music, winner of the CMAcclaim award from Chamber Music America. The Quartet’s members are Elise Kuder, violin; Jesse MacDonald, violin; Mike Kelley, viola; and Rupert Thompson, cello. They serve as the Music Directors and core faculty for Apple Hill’s Summer Chamber Music Workshop in Nelson, New Hampshire.

Each of the Quartet’s concert programs reflects the diversity of Apple Hill: pieces amplifying new voices, views, and backgrounds in classical music; compositions from places representing the Quartet’s global travels and the summer workshop community; and music from the historic canon and new commissions, especially from renowned alumni.
