The Emily Carr String Quartet is thrilled to perform “Symmetrical Soundscapes” : Music of Haydn, Fisher and Bartok on Wednesday Sept. 20 at 7:30 at St. John the Divine Victoria.

Haydn’s Op 76 no.5, is an exhilarating work by a masterful Haydn, the most famous composer in Europe at that time. The quartet will also perform Bartok’s 4th quartet, one of the greatest works of the 20th century. Maori inspired music, Tõrino, by New Zealand composer Salina Fisher will complete an exciting concert of chamber music.

The Emily Carr String Quartet has quickly established itself as one of BC's finest music ensembles. Formed in 2006 by members of the Victoria Symphony in Victoria BC, the Emily Carr String Quartet has performed in the US, Europe and Asia. They have collaborated with artists such as William Preucil, Jamie Parker, Arthur Rowe, the Alcan Quartet and the Tin Alley Quartet. The ECSQ has been featured on CBC radio's "North by Northwest" and their CD "Hidden Treasure" was nominated for the 2012 classical recording of the year at the Western Canadian music awards.
