The internationally acclaimed Rosamunde String Quartet joins a gifted quartet of Curtis students for a memorable night of chamber music. This remarkable ensemble features young stars from three of the world’s greatest orchestras: Noah Bendix-Balgley, first concertmaster of the Berlin Philharmonic; Shanshan Yao (Violin ’08), concert violinist and former member of the Pittsburgh Symphony and New York Philharmonic; Teng Li (Viola ’05), principal violist of the Los Angeles Philharmonic; and Nathan Vickery (Cello ’13), cellist in the New York Philharmonic.
This phenomenal “Dream Quartet,” continues to excite audiences with their distinctive sound and unanimity of expression.
