SUMMARY:Apple Hill String Quartet at The Orchard Chapel
DESCRIPTION:The Chapel Concert Series continues with a special October concert with the award-winning Apple Hill String Quartet. \nCalled “dashing and extraordinary” by The Strad Magazine\, the Apple Hill String Quartet are the Artistic Directors and resident musicians at the Apple Hill Center for Chamber Music\, winner of the CMAcclaim award from Chamber Music America. \nThe Apple Hill String Quartet returns this fall with another exciting and thoughtfully curated mélange of music. F. J. Haydn’s String Quartet Op. 64 No. 4 in G Major charms and soothes with its bright\, rustic\, warm melodies. In a nod to Apple Hill’s inaugural trip to Havana this December\, Cuban composer Leo Brouwer dares the audience not to stomp their feet and let loose with his riveting The Rhythm of the Night Changed. Fellow Cuban\, Paquito D’Rivera\, continues the artistic dance with his Wapango. The program closes with Czech composer Pavel Haas’s dramatic and intensely beautiful String Quartet No. 3. Written in 1938 and influenced by a premonition of impending world events\, the piece builds to a final inspiring and imploring call to action. \nThis is a concert not to be missed this autumnal season! See you soon! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT APPLE HILL STRING QUARTET\nThe Quartet serves as the Music Directors for Apple Hill’s Summer Chamber Music Workshop in Nelson\, New Hampshire\, known for cultivating connection among people of diverse backgrounds\, cultures\, and ages through its guiding philosophy\, Playing for Peace. \nDuring the regular concert season\, the Quartet performs concerts and conducts educational residencies locally in New Hampshire\, nationally in major U.S. cities\, and internationally around the globe—in venues as diverse as the Curtis Institute of Music\, Oberlin Conservatory\, the Hopkins Center for the Arts at Dartmouth College\, the University of Iowa String Quartet Residency Program\, ChatterABQ\, Burncoat High School in Worcester\, Project STEP in Boston\, Cedarcrest Center for Children with Disabilities in Keene\, NH\, the Ketermaya refugee camp outside Beirut\, Lebanon\, the Moscow Conservatory\, the Conservatorio National de Musica in Lima\, Peru\, the Gitameit Music School in Yangon\, Myanmar\, and the Harrisville General Store. \nThe Quartet’s eclectic and dynamic concert programs reflect the diversity of Apple Hill: pieces amplifying new voices in classical music; compositions from places representing the Quartet’s global travels and the summer workshop community; and music from the historic canon and new commissions\, especially from renowned alumni. \nThe Quartet has collaborated with members of the Brentano and Attacca String Quartets\, Silk Road Ensemble\, Dorian Wind Quintet\, Warp Trio\, and Hirsch-Pinkas Duo. Members of the Quartet have received degrees from Oberlin Conservatory\, the Juilliard School\, New England Conservatory of Music\, Manhattan School of Music\, Brandeis University\, the Shepherd School of Music at Rice University\, and a Fulbright Fellowship to London\, England.
