Cypress String Quartet 08-09 Season

The Cypress String Quartet returns to Montalvo for its popular Salon Series. Since its inception in 1996, the Cypress has performed to great acclaim worldwide. Their repertoire ranges from the familiar masterpieces of the Baroque and classical periods to recent works by contemporary composers. The Cypress continues its acclaimed exploration of Beethoven's quartets with the "Late Beethoven Continued" series and looks at how visual art has inspired composers with the "From the Artists Studio" series. The Cypress honors the rich tradition of chamber music by embodying the idealism, integrity and dedication from which the art form was born. Join musicians Cecily Ward and Tom Stone (violins), Ethan Filner (viola), and Jennifer Kloetzel (cello) in this interactive concert.
