Hagen String Quartet | Friday, April 30, 2010 at 7:30 pm | 
Photo credit: Regina Recht | Regarded internationally as one of the foremost string quartets of the day, the Hagen Quartet is praised for its unique, finely nuanced timbre and the engaging immediacy of its ensemble sound. The Hagen Quartet will conclude our 2009/10 season with its first performance in Canada in nearly a decade. “The control of colour and phrasing and the superb ensemble are all predictable Hagen qualities, but the way in which they characterize each work without emotional exaggeration or special pleading is also a model of its kind.”

"...one of the most sensitive and responsive of the high-powered violin virtuosos."
