The Calidore String Quartet Performing Mendelssohn
Our partnership with the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, which bolstered our spirits during the time when live music was not possible, concluded on May 31.
This presentation featured the Calidore String Quartet a young ensemble that is generating a great deal of enthusiasm for their recordings and performances. A review in the Violin Channel said “The New York-based Calidore String Quartet has in recent years firmly established themselves as one of the most celebrated young chamber ensembles to emerge internationally – praised for their confidence, finesse, intellect and expression.” While the limited engagement has ended, we will continue to present a different performance of the Calidore String Quartet performing Mendelssohn’s String Quartet in F minor via YouTube.

Supporting Classical Musicians in a Time of Need
Donations from our supporters and a grant from ArtsWestchester made is possible for us to present streaming performances during the pandemic. These limited run engagements provided some income to professional musicians who were deprived of their livelihood during this painful period. Friends Of Music Concerts is an all-volunteer nonprofit dedicated to advancing chamber music in Westchester County, New York. We hope you’ll join the community. You can participate in our Facebook group to spread the word and consider a donation. When in-person concerts begin in September, we hope to see you. We have a full schedule planned for Fall 2021 and Spring 2022. You’ll find details on this page.
