About the Event

Join us for an unforgettable night at the Madeline Island Museum full of classical music from the American String Quartet, a group of world-renowned string performers. Heralded as a troupe dedicated to “luxurious, beautifully sculptured performances” by the New York Times, the Quartet will play selections from their upcoming tour at the Madeline Island Museum Clubhouse as part of their residency with Madeline Island Chamber Music. The group will also discuss the cultural and historic implications of several pieces at length to provide a richer, deeper background on the impact of classical music in a modern context. Full repertoire will be announced at a later date.
