In their highly anticipated Festival debut, the JACK Quartet—praised as “musically and technically impeccable” by San Francisco Classical Voice—plays two exciting 21st-century works (including one they recently commissioned and premiered in New York City), and premieres Festival-commissioned string quartets by Tyson Gholston Davis and Ania Vu, the two up-and-coming talents participating in the Festival’s 12th annual Young Composers String Quartet Project.
