Škampa Quartet

Weill Recital Hall Seating Chart
“The beauty of their playing,” says London’s Independent of the Škampa Quartet, “stems from deep musical intelligence.” With a profound understanding of Czech folklore, this group has made a specialty of music by composers from its native country. On this program, the quartet performs works by Czech composers from different eras: 19th-century master Antonín Dvořák and Pavel Fischer, a former Škampa violinist.

This concert is part of Salon Encores.
