Jerusalem Quartet October 21, 2010

“Superlatives are in adequate in describing just how this playing was from one of the young, yet great, quartets of our time.” (The Strad) The Jerusalem Quartet was formed in 1993, when its members were still teenagers, within the framework of the Young Musicians’ Group under the auspices of the Jerusalem Music Centre and the America Israel Cultural Foundation. They return after their highly acclaimed UMS visit in 2007. “Musical electricity may be unfathomable, but one thing is for sure — they have it." (The Strad)
