Shriver Hall Concert Series

Concert Details

With more than 32 years of extensive touring and recording, the Emerson continues to perform with the same benchmark integrity, energy, and commitment that it has demonstrated since it was formed in 1976. Standing alone in the history of string quartets with an unparalleled list of achievements over three decades—thirty acclaimed recordings, nine Grammy® Awards including two for Best Classical Album, an unprecedented honor for a chamber music group—the Emerson String Quartet RETURNS TO THE SERIES in a recital of Mozart, Shostakovich, and Schubert.
