About The Event
As we are slowly getting back to in-person events, we are happy to re-launch our popular chamber music series, the Enescu Soirees of New York, with a concert offered by Kismet String Quartet, formed by Metropolitan Opera Orchestra musicians Ming-Feng Hsin (violin), Katherine Fong (violin), Dov Scheindlin (viola) and Julia Bruskin (cello), bound together by their passion for the music of Romania’s greatest composer. The program features Enescu’s 1st String Quartet, which was played for the first time exactly 100 years ago, paired with the String Quartet by Gabriel Fauré, Enescu’s composition teacher and one of the most important influences in his career.
