SUMMARY:Borromeo String Quartet with pianist Robert McDonald
DESCRIPTION:The visionary performances of the Borromeo String Quartet have established them as one of the most important string quartets of our time. “They probe and analyze from every angle until they discover how to best unveil the psychological\, physical\, and spiritual states that a great piece of music evokes. They’re champions of new music…but they also thrive on making the old classics sound vital and fresh\,” said Cathy Fuller\, Classical New England host on WGBH radio. She continued\, “To hear and see them perform has always felt to me like taking a private tour through a composer’s mind.” The Borromeo have been trailblazers in the use of laptop computers for reading music. This method allows them to perform entirely from 4-part scores and also composer’s manuscripts\, a revealing and transformative experience that they now teach to students around the world. \nThe Quartet has received many awards throughout their illustrious career\, including Lincoln Center’s Avery Fisher Career Grant and Martin E. Segal Award\, and Chamber Music America’s Cleveland Quartet Award. They won the Young Concert Artists International Auditions and top prizes at the International String Quartet Competition in Evian\, France. \nPianist Robert McDonald has played extensively as a soloist and chamber musician throughout the United States\, Europe\, Asia\, and South America. He has appeared with major orchestras in the United States and Latin America\, and was the recital partner for many years to Isaac Stern\, as well as other celebrated instrumentalists. Mr. McDonald has also performed with the Takács\, Vermeer\, Juilliard\, Brentano\, Borromeo\, American\, and Shanghai string quartets\, and in tours with Music from Marlboro. \nHis discography includes recordings for Sony Classical\, Bridge\, Vox\, Musical Heritage Society\, ASV\, and CRI\, and Mr. McDonald’s prizes include the Gold Medal at the Busoni International Piano Competition\, the William Kapell International Competition\, and the Deutsche Schallplatten Critics Award. He has studied with Theodore Rehl\, Seymour Lipkin\, Rudolf Serkin\, Mieczyslaw Horszowski\, Beveridge Webster\, and Gary Graffman\, and holds degrees from Lawrence University\, The Curtis Institute of Music\, The Juilliard School\, and the Manhattan School of Music.
