Takács Quartet

Monday & Tuesday
October 18 & 19, 2021
7:30 pm
Lincoln Performance Hall

Past Event - October 18 Past Event - October 19

Clearly an audience favorite, the Takács Quartet has appeared on our stage more than any other ensemble in FOCM’s history — but until now, never with a bandoneon player! Julien Labro joins the Takács Quartet on Monday for an innovative program for string quartet and bandoneon, while Tuesday’s program will feature only string quartets.

“Classical music doesn’t get much more life-enhancing than this.” The Guardian
