SIBELIUS STRING QUARTET NO 1 SERIES

When ArtPower was created in 2004, the Chamber Music series became an integral part of the program.ĪrtPower at UC San Diego builds creative experiences in music, dance, film, exhibition, and food for our collective pleasure and inspiration. In 1996, Robert and Sonia Hamburger, both avid chamber music supporters and both on the faculty at UC San Diego, established the Hamburger Endowment Fund. The origins of our Chamber Music series have their roots in the university concert series inaugurated in 1963. The UC San Diego campus community has always enjoyed chamber music performances, a tradition established by many of our founding faculty members. Adam Suprynowicz from Muzkya w Mieście (Music in the City) expresses that the quartet “possesses a perfect command of form and charming lyricism.” The quartet won second prize-along with three additional special awards-at the Wigmore Hall International String Quartet Competition in April 2012, as well as numerous top prizes at other competitions. The players of the quartet are postgraduates at the Fryderyk Chopin University of Music in Warsaw, and collaborates with pianist Alfred Brendel on interpretations of Beethoven’s music.
