In this What Makes It Great? performance, Celebrity Series favorite Rob Kapilow unpacks the first of the late quartets of Haydn’s Opus 76. He reveals how Haydn playfully subverted expectations and how this quartet encompasses much of what made Haydn great over his long and innovative career.
Joining Kapilow is the renowned Balourdet Quartet, fresh off major career milestones, including a 2024 Avery Fisher Career Grant.
