Join us for a lecture/performance featuring Brahms' String Quartet no. 3, Op. 67, by the Balourdet String Quartet, the String Quartet in Residence at Seattle Chamber Music Society. This event is free and open to the public.

This performance will be preceded by a chamber music master class and Q&A session from 4-6 p.m.

The Balourdet Quartet has been acclaimed for its vibrant energy and emotional depth -- described as creating “a world where memory and transformation coexist…one in which clarity of line and finely judged color matter as much as expressive warmth” (Seen and Heard International). As “an ensemble unafraid to show its personality” (The Strad), the Balourdet was awarded the 2024 Avery Fisher Career Grant, as well as Chamber Music America’s 2024 Cleveland Quartet Award. balourdetquartet.com
