Join us for an enchanting evening with the Newfoundland Symphony Orchestra's Atlantic String Quartet at Recital 4, a highlight of the 2023/2024 NSO Season. This prestigious event is set to take place at the historic Anglican Cathedral on Sunday, April 28, 2024, at 8:00 PM.

The Atlantic String Quartet, known for its exceptional talent and versatility, features the principal string players of the Newfoundland Symphony Orchestra: Heather Kao and Nancy Case-Oates on violins, Kate Read on viola, and Nathan Cook, the principal cellist. Their performances are a cornerstone of St. John’s cultural life, embracing a wide range of musical styles and genres.

Recital 4 promises an unforgettable night with a repertoire that includes String Quartet no. 3 by R. Murray Schafer, Entr’acte by Caroline Shaw, and Mozart's String Quartet no. 14 in G major, K. 387. These pieces showcase the quartet's range and sensitivity, from the contemporary back to the classical roots of chamber music.

The Atlantic String Quartet has not only won acclaim within Newfoundland and Labrador, evidenced by their MusicNL Classical Artist of the Year award in 2020 but has also gained recognition on the international stage. They have collaborated with renowned classical musicians and artists, bringing unique and diverse performances to audiences far and wide.
