Colorado String Quartet to Perform at CU Tuesday, March 20

Athens, W.Va. – The prestigious Colorado Quartet is giving a string concert Tuesday, March 20, 2007, at 8 p.m. in the Main Theater of the Alexander Fine Arts Center at Concord University.

Violinists Julie Rosenfeld and Deborah Redding, violist Marka Gustavsson and cellist Diane Chaplin will provide intense interpretations of Beethoven and Mozart. The all-female quartet has been recognized at the Banff International String Quartet Competition and received the Naumburg Chamber Music Award.

“The Colorado Quartet is superb in its duty as servants of the music,” says David Denton of Fanfare Magazine. “Intonation is impeccable, and the razor-sharp precision is a major contributor in my enjoyment.”

The Colorado Quartet is a Quartet-in-Residence at Bard College and Conservatory in New York, where members teach private classes and give courses on the literature of the string quartet. Their performances are noted for musical integrity, impassioned playing and lyrical finesse.

Tickets are available at the Concord University box office an hour before the concert and cost $5 for adults, $4 for senior citizens and $2 for non-Concord students.
