Chicago Chamber Musician's fifteen resident Ensemble Artists - comprising winds, brass, strings and piano - are world-renowned soloists, performers, and teachers. Out of this gifted group, a string quartet will bring their musical talents to our stage in a special concert featuring Beethoven's String Quartet in A-flat Major, Op.59, No.5; Bartók's String Quartet No.6 in D Major, Sz.114; and Dubussy's String Quartet in G Minor, Op. 10.

It persuades me to open my mind and listen."
