Telegraph Quartet
Britton Recital HallEarl V. Moore Building
Free - no tickets required
Acclaimed Telegraph Quartet, now in residency at SMTD, performs a recital. The program highlights music shaped by the idea of revisitation – it includes George Rochberg’s String Quintet (performed with cellist Norman Fischer); Franz Joseph Haydn’s String Quartet Op. 76, No. 2 “Quinten”; and Osvaldo Golijov’s Ever Yours, a string octet performed with Fischer, violist Matt Albert, and violinists River Sawchyn and Aidan Krieger. Composed in different eras, these works by Rochberg, Haydn, and Golijov each center on the idea of returning to something: musical ideas embraced before or the meanings behind emotions that influence the composers’ work.

Briggs Chamber Music Competition
Britton Recital HallEarl V. Moore Building
Free - no tickets required
The Briggs Competition was created to encourage the excellence of chamber music performance at SMTD and to provide performance opportunities for small ensembles. It is named in honor of its benefactors and evolved from the Dale and Nancy Briggs Chamber Music Endowed Enrichment Fund, established in 2004 and endowed in 2006, to support program and/or scholarship needs in chamber music. Groups will perform mini-recitals of 25 minutes, showcasing the breadth of their work throughout the year. Prizes are given to the top three groups, plus honorable mentions and a Michigan Prize for the best performance of a piece written by a Michigan composer. There will be a reception and winners’ announcement after the final performances. Start Time is tentative. Please check back for exact timing closer to the event.
