The Jasper String Quartet\, praised by Gramophone as “flawless in ensemble and intonation\, expressively assured and beautifully balanced\,” has built its reputation on programs that connect the great canon to the living composers shaping music right now. In MoCACT’s galleries\, surrounded by contemporary art and seated steps from the players\, you’ll experience that artistry the way it lands best: up close\, where the drama is impossible to miss. \nRecipients of Chamber Music America’s prestigious Cleveland Quartet Award\, the Jasper String Quartet was named CMA’s 2025 Album of the Year for Insects and Machines: Quartets of Vivian Fung — music The Strad called “sonically delightful and expressively compelling.” At this performance\, they preview their 2026 release Lamenting Earth\, a luminous meditation on humanity and the natural world. Expect an evening as intellectually alive as it is profoundly moving — the work of one of the preeminent American quartets of the twenty-first century.
