A classic string quartet with pizazz

Published



The Harlem Quartet joins pianist Misha Dichter for a Fortas Chamber Concert guaranteed to whisk away winter blues. The program features Quintets by Shostakovich and Schumann and jazz master Chick Corea’s “Adventures of Hippocrates” inspired by a robot L. Ron Hubbard invented for a science fiction series.

Violinist Ilmar Gavilan is excited about the program. He and colleagues Melissa White on violin, violist Juan-Miguel Hernandez and cellist Paul Wiancko have performed the Schumann work several times with Dichter and first played Corea’s piece at the composer’s 70th birthday celebration.
