Shenandoah University is pleased to announce the Audubon Quartet will perform at 8 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 11 and Saturday, Sept. 12 and at 3 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 13 in Armstrong Concert Hall, located on Shenandoah’s main campus in Winchester, Va. A pre-concert lecture will be held one hour before each concert.
The performances are part of the 2009-2010 season of Performing Arts Live, a guest artist series sponsored by Shenandoah Conservatory that brings world-class cultural offerings to the Northern Shenandoah Valley.
For more than 30 years, the award-winning Audubon Quartet has garnered critical acclaim for its performances around the world. The quartet formed at the 1974 session of the Lenox Quartet Chamber Music Seminar in Binghamton, N.Y., and quickly commanded international attention as the first American quartet to ever win first prize in an international competition. Within four years, the Audubon Quartet won the first prize in three major international competitions.
Tickets are $25; subscriptions and gift certificates are also available. To purchase tickets, visit the Shenandoah University Box Office in the Ohrstrom-Bryant Theatre lobby between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. Monday through Friday or call (540) 665-4569.
