From: Shostakovich FestivalThe Jerusalem Quartet's Shostakovich quartet cycle in 2013 was "easily among the most memorable musical performances in Portland in recent memory." (The Oregonian) Next season audiences have a chance to relive that experience, or experience for the first time the wit, irony, and passion of these incredible quartets performed by the phenomenal Jerusalem Quartet. "Passion, precision, warmth. . . these are the trademarks of this excellent Israeli string quartet." The New York Times
