Jupiter Quartet Returns to Krannert for 2024-25 Season
Hailed by The New Yorker as “an ensemble of eloquent intensity [that] has matured into one of the mainstays of the American chamber-music scene,” the Jupiter Quartet returns to the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts on November 12 with a program of quartets by Ludwig van Beethoven, Kati Agócs, and Franz Schubert. We sat down with two members of the University of Illinois’ Quartet-in-Residence to discuss their upcoming season. In particular, we preview Singing Land, a work for chamber choir and string quartet by composer Su Lian Tan with words by botanist/writer Robin Wall Kimmerer. Singing Land is the latest in a series of Jupiter Quartet-commissioned works celebrating the environment.
