We are honored to host Callisto Quartet, the award winning resident quartet at Yale and one of the top quartets in the country. Since their inception at the Cleveland Institute of Music in 2016, Callisto has garnered top prizes in nearly every major international chamber music competition and has been hailed by audiences across the globe. Grand Prize winners of the 2018 Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition, the Callisto Quartet has also taken home prizes from the Bordeaux, Melbourne, Banff and Wigmore Hall competitions. Currently the Fellowship Quartet in Residence at Yale University and Associate Artists in Residence at the Queen Elisabeth Music Chapel, Callisto has previously held residencies at Rice University's Shepherd School of Music and the Escuela Superior de Música Reina Sofía in Madrid, Spain.
The concert is about one-hour in length, leaving you time to dine out. Your concert ticket includes admission to all the museum galleries, so make sure you come early to see our current exhibits.
Our concerts are a unique opportunity to enjoy leading classical performers up close, in our intimate gallery setting surrounded by beautiful art from the Northwest—the way chamber music was meant to be experienced!
Seating is limited and these concerts often sell-out, so please we suggest reserving your seats well in advance.
