Thalea String Quartet
As Caramoor’s 2019-20 Ernst Stiefel Quartet-in-Residence, the Thalea String Quartet was slated to culminate their residency with a summer concert, but was thwarted by COVID closures. Finally, we are delighted to welcome them back with Legacies, a program exploring the American traditions of rap, rock, and bluegrass.
Talkback with Helga Davis / Stay for a conversation with Thalea String Quartet immediately following the concert.
“The quartet has the potential to be one of the finest of its generation.”
