The
Juilliard String Quartet champions the cause of chamber music through
pedagogy and public performance. Its members are dedicated to bringing
the works of contemporary composers such as Elliott Carter, Gunther Schuller,
and Ralph Shapey to the same vibrant life that they call forth from the
music of Beethoven, Mendelssohn and other acknowledged masters of the
classical tradition. In keeping with its mission, the Quartet also specializes
in rescuing underperformed masterworks from obscurity and in mentoring
the very best young chamber musicians.
To
learn more about recent JSQ performances, please review recent press
releases about the Quartet's activities.
The
current members, from left to right in the photograph below, are: Joel
Smirnoff, violin; Ronald Copes, violin; Joel Krosnick, cello; and Samuel
Rhodes, viola.
