Voxare String Quartet

String Quartet No. 1



Miller's popular midday series returns! Discover great chamber works in an intimate, casual setting. This season the concerts spotlight four of the founding fathers of modern American music, with works for voice, strings, and piano.

Written while he was a student at Yale, Ives' String Quartet No. 1 contains many of the stylistic hallmarks he would come to be known for, including the use of several hymn tunes and, in the third movement, the composer's first experiment with polymeter.

Lunchtime Concerts are supported in part by the National Endowment for the Arts and the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences.
