The following description was submitted by the event organizer.

The “fiercely intelligent and expressively pristine” (The New Yorker) Brentano String Quartet, CMNW’s 2021-22 Artists-in-Residence, unleash an immersive program in celebration of Stravinsky through the medium of quartet and beyond. Interlacing the legendary 20th century composer’s beautifully idiomatic compositions with poetry and works from his contemporaries and acolytes, you’ll first go on an eclectic journey deep into the world of Stravinsky. That immersive investigation will be followed by masterpieces that influenced Stravinsky including 16th century madrigals and Beethoven’s epic final quartet with its wild, kaleidoscopic finale that could almost be mistaken for Stravinsky himself.
