Leila’s great story about the Jerusalem String Quartet’s first visit to Vancouver inspired to ask you for your stories.
Since their memorable debut, they have returned to Vancouver several times, most notably for a week in 2006 when they performed the complete string quartets of Dmitri Shostakovich, and more recently with clarinetist Martin Fröst in the 2008/09 season. The Quartet returns to the Chan Centre (with a new member!) on Sunday, October 2.
We would like to know what is your lasting memory of the Jerusalem String Quartet? Perhaps it comes from one of the VRS presentations, or from a performance in another city, or perhaps you are especially found of one of their recordings.
Tell us about your lasting memory of the Jerusalem String Quartet.
I attended all their Shostakovich Quartets concert cycle. Since then i’ll go to every concert of theirs i can get to. One can’t afford to miss them.
