The Jasper String Quartet performs the music of JUNO Award-winning composer Vivian Fung in a concert celebrating the release of Insects and Machines, a new album featuring the first commercial recording of Fung’s String Quartets Nos. 1-4 to be released on October 27 on Sono Luminus. Admission is free, but registration is required. NPR calls Vivian Fung “one of today’s most eclectic composers” and The Philadelphia Inquirer praises her “stunningly original compositional voice.” A recipient of Chamber Music America’s prestigious Cleveland Quartet Award, the Jasper String Quartet (violinists J Freivogel and Karen Kim, violist Andrew Gonzalez, and cellist Rachel Henderson Freivogel) has been hailed as “sonically delightful and expressively compelling,” (The Strad) and described by Gramophone as “flawless in ensemble and intonation, expressively assured and beautifully balanced.”
