Myra Foundation Presents: Concerts in the Galleries Featuring Beo Quartet

About the Series

Shortly after the Museum opened in the current building, it was discovered that the expansive galleries were glorious for chamber music. Subsequently, the Museum Concert Series was born, and musicians from around the world were invited to perform against the backdrop of contemporary art. This Sunday afternoon tradition has continued for over thirty years and with the support of the community will thrive for generations to come.

Beo String Quartet
November 17, 2024

Founded in 2015 by musicians from Devils Lake, ND, Beo Quartet has created a niche for itself as a daring, genre-defying ensemble whose performances have been compared to those of the best among 21st century international string quartets.

A hip, full-immersion quartet capable of far-reaching achievements...compelling, thought-provoking, and musically satisfying ...BEO is absolute purity of intonation...and that supernatural ‘one-ness’ of interpretive intent that animates the best quartets. —Fanfare Magazine

Grammy-winner Jason Vieaux, among the elite of today’s classical guitarists (Gramophone), is described by NPR as perhaps the most precise and soulful classical guitarist of his generation. In appearances at Lincoln Center to the Seoul Arts Center, Jason Vieaux has cemented his reputation as an artist of uncompromised mastery.
