Since March 1922, when the members of the Kilbourn Quartet walked on stage to dedicate the recital hall at the recently opened Eastman School of Music, string quartets have thrilled and delighted Rochester audiences.
Centered as always on the richly colored literature for string quartet, this Eastman-Ranlet Series includes performances by Eastman’s resident Ying Quartet and other notable artists.
