From the venue:

“bringing a new attitude to classical music, one that is fresh, bracing and intelligent.” — Cincinnati Enquirer

Acclaimed for its dynamic performances and fresh approach to classical music, the Grammy Award-winning Harlem Quartet is joined by Cuban pianist and composer Aldo López-Gavilán for a program full of exuberance and spirit in a mesmerizing combination of classical perfection and virtuoso jazz featuring Schumann's beloved Piano Quintet in E-flat Major, followed a journey through Cuba’s myriad musical traditions with works by López-Gavilán.

Having toured as a quintet since 2015, this ensemble has developed a cohesive and powerful sound. Concerts and residencies have included Rockport (MA) Chamber Music Festival, Chautauqua Institution, Santa Fe College, Las Vegas’s Smith Center for the Performing Arts, the Chamber Music Society of Detroit, and L.A.’s Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts.
