The Jupiter Quartet, described by The New Yorker as having “technical finesse and rare expressive maturity,” is presented by New Millennium Concert Series for a performance at CSUS Capistrano Hall. The ensemble will perform a program that is diverse in its musical styles and in the creative sources of the composers’ respective works. The music reflects a colorful collage of inspirational elements, unified by a thread of compositional sophistication. The program includes W.A. Mozart’s String Quartet No. 21 in D Major, K. 575 (1789), Antonin Dvořák’s String Quartet No. 14 in A-flat Major, Op. 105 B. 193 (1895), and Su Lian Tan’s Life in Wayang (2002).

The Jupiter String Quartet are internationally acclaimed winners of the Banff International String Quartet Competition and the Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition, known for their “compelling” performances (BBC Music Magazine).
