During Schubert’s lifetime, events to celebrate the music of this musical genius were often held in Vienna and around Europe. These events, which included the participation of sometimes the composer himself and other important figures such as Beethoven, are called “Schubertiads”.

While its the 225th birthday of the composer, we would like to take the spirit of the Schubertiade, and present a few distinctive programs with all Schubert chamber music works together with some of our close friends who share the same devotion and commitment to the playing of chamber music with us.

The first 3 concerts we are preparing feature the 3 instruments in a string quartet, violin, viola and cello respectively.

The very first concert will be produced by Andante Musica at Youth Square this December and features the cello! We are so glad that Avery Fisher Career Grant recipient and winner of the Sphinx Competition, American cellist Sterling Elliot will join us to perform the Cello Quintet in the second half!
