Emerson String Quartet
The iconic Emerson String Quartet returns to Caramoor for their American debut appearance with new cellist, Paul Watkins.
Paul Watkins, a much-lauded cellist, as well as Music Director of the English Chamber Orchestra, replaces David Finkel, who left after thirty-four years with the group. Hailed by The New York Times as a “superb ensemble: technically resourceful, musically insightful, cohesive, full of character and always interesting,” this much-acclaimed group will perform a perennial quartet favorite, Beethoven’s Op.59, No. 3, “Rasumovsky.”
Emerson String Quartet: Eugene Drucker, Philip Setzer, violins; Lawrence Dutton, viola; Paul Watkins, cello
Program: Works by Beethoven and Britten.
Introduce your family to Caramoor and enjoy the sounds (no view of artists/stage) of the concert from the Picnic Lawns;. Purchase Concert Al Fresco tickets ($10).
