FSQ at USU: Nature’s Resonance

Join us this February for an unforgettable evening of chamber music, showcasing both classical brilliance and bold contemporary innovation.

The program begins with Haydn’s "String Quartet in D Major, Op. 20, No. 4," a stunning example of the composer’s mastery in the quartet form. Part of his revolutionary Op. 20 set, this work captivates with its elegant interplay of voices and imaginative thematic development.

Continuing the program is the world premiere of a new work by composer Hitomi Oba, a rising star and member of Gabriela Lena Frank’s Academy. Known for her inventive style and fresh perspectives, Oba’s piece promises to be an inspiring addition to our season’s exploration of nature and music.

The evening concludes with Beethoven’s "String Quartet Op. 130," featuring the monumental "Grosse Fuge." This masterpiece, with its bold intensity and profound complexity, reflects the immense power of nature and the human spirit. This performance is part of a multi-year journey through Beethoven’s late quartets, culminating in the 2027-2028 season. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to witness a cornerstone of chamber music history unfold.
