String Quartet in A Major, Op. 18 no. 5

String Quartet in Eb Major, Op. 74 (“Harp”)

A Bay Area treasure, violinist Robin Sharp is the longtime concertmaster of the San Francisco Chamber Orchestra and chamber musician par excellence. With three of her SFCO companions, the Sharp String Quartet will perform an evening of string quartets from that undisputed master of the genre, Ludwig van Beethoven. Born Dec 16, 1770, Beethoven inherited the classical world of Haydn and Mozart and despite a difficult life that included complete deafness by the age of 44, he changed the course of music history with his 9 symphonies, 32 piano sonatas and 16 string quartets.

The SSQ will play one quartet from Beethoven’s early years and one from a bit later. Don’t miss this wonderful evening of great chamber music.
