About this Event
The Berkelium String Quartet is a new chamber ensemble of celebrated Bay Area musicians, founded in September, 2024. While they don’t yet have accolades as the Berkelium String Quartet, the members each have impressive careers. They hold degrees from Yale University, Juilliard School of Music, UC Berkeley, Cleveland Institute of Music, and Bern Conservatory of Music. They perform with SF Symphony, SF Opera, SF Ballet, SF Chamber Orchestra, New Century Chamber Orchestra, Oakland Symphony, and hold principal positions with Berkeley Symphony, Sacramento Philharmonic and Opera, Santa Rosa Symphony, and West Edge Opera.
They have taught at UC Berkeley, UC Davis, SF State, Mills College, and The Crowden School. These musicians have performed solo and chamber performances across the US and Europe, and collectively, they have premiered hundreds of new works. Their primary focus as the Berkelium String Quartet will be the seminal works of the string quartet repertoire, with a special focus on the sixteen quartets of Beethoven.
Dan lives in Berkeley and teaches at UC Berkeley, Karen earned her BA from UC Berkeley, Jacob grew up in Berkeley, and Mike occasionally eats in Berkeley.
