| The Fine Arts Quartet first performed at the June Music Festival in 1945, the first year of its existence. In the 65 years that have followed, the group has maintained its status as one of the most distinguished ensembles in chamber music, with an illustrious history of performing success and an extensive recording legacy. Violinists Ralph Evans and Efim Boico and cellist Wolfgang Laufer have now been performing together for nearly 30 years. Violist Niccolo Eugelmi joined the quartet in 2009. The Quartet's recent recordings have received many distinctions. Their Fauré Quintets CD on Naxos with pianist Cristina Ortiz was singled out by the 2011 Gramophone Classical Music Guide as a "Gramophone award-winner and recording of legendary status", and was among the recordings for which musical producer Steven Epstein won a 2009 Grammy® Award. On Sunday, June 3, the Quartet will be joined by Guillermo Figueroa in a rare performance of Beethoven's viola quintet, Op. 29 | | |
