Enjoying Lumina String Quartet's Chamber Music Concert

Last Sunday, we were invited to attend our niece's concert, part of the eighteenth annual Lumina String Quartet's Chamber Music Institute for Young Musicians in The Palace Theatre, Stamford, CT from August 5 to August 18, 2015. Each of these Sunday afternoon concerts will feature youthful string quartets playing works by the greatest classical composers. 

It is really an inspiring experience to see young musicians aged 9 to 18 playing classics so eloquently and professionally, including Haydn, Schubert, Weber, Mendelssohn and Borodin. On that particular afternoon, there were 8 performances playing quartets, quintets and sextets, Our 15-year-old Emily played her cello with four other players (three violinists, and one more cellist). Their complete unabridged quintet performance of Schubert's work is simply divine and energetic! Three of us, Sue, Paul and I, are bursting with pride!
