SUMMARY:Pacifica Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Pre-concert lecture at 6:30 pm.\nThe program includes pieces by Samuel\, George and Antonín.\n\nPerformers\n\nSimin Ganatra\, violin\n\nAustin Hartman\, violin\n\nMark Holloway\, viola\n\nBrandon Vamos\, cello\n\n\nAbout The Ensemble\n\nFormed in 1994\, the Pacifica Quartet quickly won chamber music’s top competitions\, including the 1998 Naumburg Chamber Music Award. In 2002 the ensemble was honored with Chamber Music America’s Cleveland Quartet Award and the appointment to Lincoln Center’s The Bowers Program (formerly CMS Two)\, and in 2006 was awarded a prestigious Avery Fisher Career Grant. With its powerful energy and captivating\, cohesive sound\, the Pacifica has established itself as the embodiment of the senior American quartet sound.\n\n  The Pacifica Quartet has proven itself the preeminent interpreter of string quartet cycles\, harnessing the group’s singular focus and incredible stamina to portray each composer’s evolution\, often over the course of just a few days. Having given highly acclaimed performances of the complete Carter cycle in San Francisco\, New York\, Chicago\, and Houston; the Mendelssohn cycle in Napa\, Australia\, New York\, and Pittsburgh; and the Beethoven cycle in New York\, Denver\, St. Paul\, Chicago\, Napa\, and Tokyo (in an unprecedented presentation of five concerts in three days at Suntory Hall)\, the Quartet presented the monumental Shostakovich cycle in Chicago\, New York\, Montreal\, and at London’s Wigmore Hall. The Quartet has been widely praised for these cycles\, with critics calling the concerts “brilliant\,” “astonishing\,” “gripping\,” and “breathtaking.”  \n\nAn ardent advocate of contemporary music\, the Pacifica Quartet commissions and performs many new works including those by Keeril Makan\, Julia Wolfe\, and Shulamit Ran\, the latter in partnership with the Music Accord consortium\, London’s Wigmore Hall\, and Tokyo’s Suntory Hall. The work – entitled Glitter\, Doom\, Shards\, Memory – had its New York debut as part of the Chamber Music Society at Lincoln Center series.\n\nThe members of the Pacifica Quartet live in Bloomington\, IN\, where they serve as quartet-in-residence and full-time faculty members at Indiana University’s Jacobs School of Music. Prior to their appointment\, the Quartet was on the faculty of the University of Illinois at Champaign Urbana from 2003 to 2012\, and also served as resident performing artist at the University of Chicago for seventeen years.
