Celebrated as one of the preeminent American string quartets of the twenty-first century, the prizewinning Jasper String Quartet is highly regarded for its ability to evocatively connect the music of underrepresented and living composers to the canonical repertoire through thoughtful programs that appeal to a wide variety of audiences.

The Jasper String Quartet will appear in concert in Wolfensohn Hall on Saturday, March 1, 2025 at 7:00 p.m. as part of the Edward T. Cone Concert Series, performing a musical program influenced by Broadcasting Fidelity, our program from the previous evening, which includes pieces by Hindemith, Bacewicz, and Beethoven.

Funding is provided by the Edward T. Cone Foundation.
