Philharmonia Quartett Berlin

Founded in 1988 by the concertmaster and string section leaders of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, the Philharmonia Quartett Berlin is considered among the finest string quartets playing on the world stage today. "The ensemble was impeccable and the intonation flawless. It's tempting to use the word 'perfect' to describe this kind of playing, except that perfection implies an impersonal ideal that's worlds away from the abundant humanity of the quartet's approach. (The Oregonian) Coleman looks forward to the Quartet's long-awaited debut on the series.

The program for this concert will include:

Shostakovich	Quartet No. 7 in F-sharp minor, Op. 108
Shostakovich	Quartet No. 15 in E-flat minor, Op. 144
Beethoven	Quartet in C Major, Op. 59, No. 3
