SUMMARY:Performance:Telegraph Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Acclaimed Telegraph Quartet\, now in residency at the School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, performs a recital.\n\nKnown for their technical prowess and appreciation for the history behind music\, the members of the Telegraph Quartet bring their fluid synchronicity and refined artistry to a program titled *From Countryside to Concert Hall*  – a concert that showcases how three composers adapted\, adopted\, or fully embodied folk music\, bringing the rustic and unassuming spirit of that idiom into the bright light of the concert stage. The program includes Franz Joseph Haydn’s String Quartet in C Major\, op. 54\, no. 2\; Derrick Skye’s *American Mirror\, Part 1*\; and Béla Bartók’s String Quartet no. 2.\n\nHaydn’s Quartet in C Major evokes a spirit of ambition and experimentation with musical form. The intricacy and deeply expressive nature of the melodies across its four movements reflected Haydn’s engaging instincts as a composer. Composer Derrick Skye says\, \"*American Mirror* reflects on the coming together of cultures in our society\, which consists of many generations and descendants of refugees\, immigrants\, and slaves\, and how intercultural collaborations are essential to the well-being of American society.” The piece infuses influences from West African\, North African\, and Eastern European vocal techniques and ornamentations with open harmonies commonly found in Appalachian folk music. Bartók’s second quartet exhibits his immersion into what he called the “purest music” – that of the remote Hungarian countryside – a style he sought to absorb and recreate as a new form of highly complex concert music.\n\nABOUT TELEGRAPH QUARTET\nErin Chin & Joseph Maile\, violins\nPei-Ling Lin\, viola\nJeremiah Shaw\, cello\n\nThe 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.\n\nThe 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.\n\nIn 2023\, the Telegraph Quartet released *20th Century Vantage Points: Divergent Paths*\, the first in a trilogy of recordings on Azica Records exploring the string quartets of the first half of the 20th century – an era of music that the group has felt especially called to perform since its formation. *Divergent Paths* features two works that (to the best of the quartet’s knowledge) have never been recorded on the same album before: Maurice Ravel’s String Quartet in F Major and Arnold Schoenberg’s String Quartet no. 1 in D minor\, op. 7. The quartet’s new album\, *20th Century Vantage Points: Edge of the Storm* is out now on Azica Records.\n\nwww.telegraphquartet.com
