Fabulous alertness and taut ensemble… is there a better Chamber Orchestra in the world?"

—The Guardian

Concert Classics Series

Charles S. Robinson Memorial Concert

About the Event

Schubert’s single movement of the Quartettsatz opens a concert of vibrant musical landscapes—ranging from the vast Australian geographies that inspired John Luther Adams’ latest work for the ensemble, to the soaring heights of Ralph Vaughan Williams’ shimmering skylark, and the dreamlike beauty of Fanny Mendelssohn’s virtuosic String Quartet. Offering a full chamber orchestra’s exhilaratingly fresh take on string quartet repertoire is a perfect reflection of the intrepid and collaborative spirit that has garnered the Australian Chamber Orchestra international acclaim and made it a fan favorite of our audiences.
