Pacifica String Quartet will present a free public concert at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, March 5, in Bucksbaum Sebring-Lewis Hall. The quartet offered a master class at Grinnell College earlier in the week.

The group regularly performs in the world’s major concert halls and was the quartet-in-residence at the Metropolitan Museum of Art 2009­12. They earned a Grammy Award in 2009 for Best Chamber Music Performance.  The members of the Pacifica Quartet are the quartet-in-residence and full-time faculty members at the Jacobs School of Music.

 “The Pacifica Quartet has carved a niche for itself as the preeminent interpreter of string quartet cycles, harnessing the group’s singular focus and incredible stamina to portray each composer’s evolution, often over the course of just a few days,” according to their biography.

The quartet’s visit is sponsored by the Department of Music.

Grinnell welcomes and encourages the participation of people with disabilities. You can request accommodations from the event sponsor or Conference Operations.
