Programme Note
"The Chilingirian String Quartet, the sensational British ensemble, has been known to provoke whoops and cheers out of ordinarily staid audiences." (The Toronto Star)
"One of the great string quartets of our day." (The Boston Globe)
Four wonderful musicians; one extraordinary sound: there’s a reason why the Chilingirian String Quartet is a legend and this great British string quartet has been astonishing audiences for over fifty years. Today they play three solid gold classics (including Borodin’s ravishing Second Quartet) as well as a magical tribute to their Armenian-born founder and leader, Levon Chilingirian himself.
