Vogler Quartet

“So powerful…the audience sat in stunned silence.” Cleveland Plain Dealer

Founded in East Berlin in 1985 and still going strong with its original members, the Vogler Quartet first gained international recognition when it took First Prize at the International String Competition in Evian, France. Extensive touring and recording soon followed. In honor of their 25th anniversary and in connection with the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, the Quartet will perform The Zimro Project: Golijov and Music of the New Jewish School for their long-overdue UW World Series debut.

Program (subject to change):

The Zimro Project
Prokofiev: Overture on Hebrew Themes, Op.34
Krejn: Prelude
Achron: Selections from Children's Suite, Op. 57
Chajes: Hebrew Suite
Golijov: The Dreams and Prayers of Isaac the Blind for Klezmer Clarinet and String Quartet
