Jupiter String Quartet Gives Virtual Concert with the Jasper String Quartet
On May 1, 2021 at 8pm ET, the Jupiter Quartet joins forces with the Jasper String Quartet to perform Mendelssohn’s Octet in E-flat, Op. 20 for Ringwood Friends of Chamber Music. Their recording of the work was released in February 2021 on Marquis Classics and praised by All Music as, “one of the best versions [of Mendelssohn’s Octet] available, with a crackling finale and plenty of energy throughout.” The concert also includes Florence Price’s String Quartet in G Major performed by the Jasper and George Walker’s moving “Lyric” for String Quartet performed by the Jupiter.
