Telegraph Quartet & San Francisco Conservatory of Music – Graduate Students
*Sunday, April 2, 5:00 pm – 7:00 pm

For the finale of our golden anniversary, we have invited the spectacular Telegraph Quartet, and a group of chamber music students from San Francisco Conservatory of Music.

The students will be chosen from the best in the chamber music class. We deem this an opportunity to expressly show our support for chamber music education.

As the program will be determined in next academic year, we don’t have specifics, but hope to finish with the exuberant Mendelssohn Octet in Eb, a masterpiece written when he was only 16!

Eric Chin and Joseph Maile, violins
Pei-Ling Lin, viola
Jeremiah Shaw, violoncello

Program: TBA, but hopefully including a quartet, a larger ensemble, and the Mendelssohn Octet.
