Work: String Quartet no. 9 in C major, "Razumovsky", Op.59 no.3

The premiere of Saad Haddad's Second String Quartet survives the downpour, the centrepiece of the Callistos’ recital in Caramoor’s Venetian Theater.

Overall, the performance kept a wonderful equilibrium between color and structure, humor and tragic sentiment, self-confidence and doubt.

Three young string quartets competing for first prize at the the13th Banff International String Quartet Competition played so well that they took the jurors into double overtime.
