Chamber Music Concerts presents the Mandelring Quartett

Chamber Music Concerts presents the Mandelring Quartett

“Brilliance is not a strong enough word — it’s more like an electric shock. The music transfixes the listener from literally the very first note, electrifying heart and brain without any advance warning…the Mandelring Quartett, under extreme tension, heated and feverish, is dangerously close to catching fire!” Neue Zürcher Zeitung

Chamber Music Concerts (CMC) presents the Mandelring Quartett on Saturday, March 14 at 3pm at the Southern Oregon University Music Recital Hall, 450 S Mountain Ave, Ashland, OR. Purchase tickets at ChamberMusicConcerts.org or call 541-552-6154.

Audiences will be thrilled to welcome a long-time favorite, the Mandelring Quartett, as the four affable Germans return to the stage in Ashland for a single performance.

Named by Fono Forum as one of the six best string quartets in the world, the Mandelring Quartett’s expressivity and remarkable homogeneity of sound have become its distinguishing characteristics. Formed in 1983 in the German wine region in Neustadt an der Weinstrasse, three Schmidt siblings — Sebastian, Nanette and Bernhard — join with violist Andreas Willwohl in an approach to music that is always emotional and personal. The Mandelring Quartett celebrated its 40th Anniversary in 2023.

The Mandelring's concert program for CMC features Felix Mendelssohn’s String Quartet in D Major, Op. 44 no. 1; Dmitri Shostakovich’s String Quartet in F-sharp Minor, Op 108; and Ludwig van Beethoven’s String Quartet in C Major, Op. 59 no. 3

Tickets are $39/49, with discounts available for full-time students and Oregon Trail Card holders. Purchase online at ChamberMusicConcerts.org or by calling 541-552-6154.
