Telegraph Quartet Recital Telegraph Quartet Recital
Telegraph Quartet Recital
Acclaimed Telegraph Quartet, now in residency at the School of Music, Theatre & Dance, performs a recital hosted by the Departments of Chamber Music and Strings.

PROGRAM
Rebecca Clarke, Poem for String Quartet
Ludwig van Beethoven, String Quartet No. 10, Op. 74, “Harp”
Maurice Ravel, String Quartet in F Major

Join the Telegraph Quartet for a concert of chiaroscuro – darkness and light – featuring string quartets by Beethoven, Ravel and Rebecca Clarke. Presenting their second recital of the 24/25 season, the performance will be headed by Clarke’s doleful Poem for String Quartet, inspired in part by her contemporary, Ernest Bloch’s Schelomo. Following are Beethoven’s bright and noble E-flat Major Op. 74 “Harp” quartet and Ravel’s sensual String Quartet in F Major.

ABOUT TELEGRAPH QUARTET

The TELEGRAPH QUARTET formed in 2013 with an equal passion for standard and contemporary chamber music repertoire. Described by the San Francisco Chronicle as “…an incredibly valuable addition to the cultural landscape” and “powerfully adept… with a combination of brilliance and subtlety,” the Telegraph Quartet was awarded the prestigious 2016 Walter W. Naumburg Chamber Music Award and the Grand Prize at the 2014 Fischoff Chamber Music Competition. The Quartet is currently the Quartet-in-Residence at the University of Michigan.

The Quartet has performed in New York City’s Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center, San Francisco’s Herbst Theatre, the San Francisco Conservatory of Music’s Chamber Masters Series, and at festivals including the Chautauqua Institute, Kneisel Hall Chamber Music Festival, and the Emilia Romagna Festival. They have collaborated with pianists Leon Fleisher and Simone Dinnerstein; cellists Norman Fischer and Bonnie Hampton; violinist Ian Swensen; and the St. Lawrence Quartet and Henschel Quartett. A fervent champion of 20th- and 21st-century repertoire, the Telegraph Quartet has premiered works by Osvaldo Golijov, John Harbison, Robert Sirota, and Richard Festinger.

In August 2023, the Telegraph Quartet released its latest album Divergent Paths, the first in a series of recordings titled 20th Century Vantage Points, on Azica Records. Divergent Paths, featuring Ravel’s String Quartet in F Major and Schoenberg’s String Quartet No. 1 in D minor, Op. 7, follows Into The Light (Centaur, 2018), an album highlighting a gripping set of works by Leon Kirchner, Anton Webern, and Benjamin Britten.
