Concerts This Month

Parsons

Details:

A classical string quartet that rocks? Yes!

Carpe Diem String Quartet is an exciting group that is becoming one of the most versatile ensembles of their generation. The group performs the classical string quartet repertoire, but their musical passion has led them down the paths of Gypsy, tango, folk, pop, rock, and jazz-inspired music.

Carpe Diem’s latest disc was selected for the 2009 Grammy Awards Entry List in no fewer than four categories: Best Classical Album, Best Chamber Music Performance, Best New Artist, and Best Engineered Album-Classical. Recent ambitious projects include the complete recordings of the nine string quartets of Sergey Taneyev and a collaboration with Columbus Dance Theater aired by WOSU-PBS television.

With outside-the-box programs, electrifying performances, and a passion for audience engagement, Carpe Diem has earned critical acclaim and concert ovation.
