FSQ at USU Series | When You Think You Can’t Go Further

The FSQ@USU 2026/27 Season opens with The Viola Burns Longer—a concert bursting with personality, creativity, and wit; continues with When You Think You Can’t Go Further, which pushes beyond the outer bounds of the quartet tradition; and closes with Memory, Longing, and What Extends Beyond, widening toward ecological memory, mortality, gratitude, and what survives us.

FSQ at USU Series | When You Think You Can’t Go Further
February 9, 2027 @ 7:30pm
Russell/Wanlass Performance Hall

Ludwig van Beethoven | String Quartet in E-flat Major, Op. 127
Georges Enescu | String Octet, Op. 7
With guest artists Will Hagen & Laura Ha, violins; Andrea Ashdown, viola; and Walter Haman, cello

What can you program after late Beethoven?
The FSQ continues its journey toward a complete cycle of Beethoven’s late string quartets in fall 2028 with Op. 127—a work of extraordinary spaciousness, intimacy, and invention. And then: Enescu. Written when the composer was only nineteen, his monumental String Octet seems to ask how much farther eight string players can possibly go. Sweeping, youthful, virtuosic, and almost orchestral in scale, it is one of the rare works audacious enough to follow late Beethoven.
