- After devoting their London appearances last season to Beethoven, the Tak谩cs Quartet鈥檚 three Southbank recitals in the current term range much more widely. Their second emulated the basic outline of the first, two months ago: a quartet from Haydn鈥檚 Op 71 set was followed by major 20th- and 19th-century works, in this case by Bart贸k and Smetana.
- Congratulations to the following CU student performers and their teachers for winning the following awards at the MTNA (Music Teachers National Association) state competition. The competition is open to anyone in the State of Colorado and winners will advance to the Division Competition in January in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
Student musicians from Australia will be aiming for a tour de force when they unite with counterparts from the CU College of Music for an historic concert in Boulder on October 26th.
The Tak谩cs Quartet just completed a three-concert series focusing on Schubert in New York City (92nd Street Y), and at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. The series featured the New York premiere of a new work composed for the Quartet by CU Composter Daniel Kellog based on the slow movement theme of Schubert鈥檚 鈥淒eath and the Maiden鈥 Quartet; guest pianist Jeffrey Kahane, guest cellist Paul Katz, and guest bassist Joseph Feeney.
