Impromptu Concerts Presents the Calidore String Quartet Sunday, January 8, 2023, at 4 pm

The first concert of Key West Impromptu Classical Concerts’ 51st anniversary season will feature the Calidore String Quartet.  

Performances of the Calidore String Quartet are renowned for their “deep reserves of virtuosity and irrepressible dramatic instinct” (New York Times).  Their unique “balance of intellect and expression” (Los Angeles Times) is complemented by the feeling that “four more individual musicians are unimaginable, yet these speak, breathe, think and feel as one” (Washington Post).  

After over a decade of performances and residencies in the world’s most esteemed venues and festivals, the release of numerous critically acclaimed recordings and lauded with significant awards, the Calidore String Quartet is recognized as one of the world’s foremost interpreters of a vast repertory; from the cycles of quartets by Beethoven and Mendelssohn to works of celebrated contemporary voices like Grygory Kurtag, Jörg Wedmann and Caroline Shaw.  

The January 8th program will feature works from Bedřich Smetana, Dmitri Shostakovich, and Antonín Dvořák.

The concert takes place at 4:00 pm on Sunday, January 8th at St. Paul’s Church at 401 Duval St.  Admission is $20 at the door. Students are admitted free.
