The internationally renowned Mivos Quartet honors the lion of contemporary American composition on his 90th birthday with a full performance of his string quartets. Praised for the fierce virtuosity and warm expressiveness of their playing, Eastman alumni Olivia de Prato and William Overcash, alongside Victor Lowrie Tafoya and Nathan Watts, offer WTC 9/11, Triple Quartet, and Different Trains in a tribute to Reich’s era-defining genius.
