The Takács Quartet is widely recognized for the intensity, passion, and virtuosic technique of its performances in virtually every music capital and prestigious festival around the world. Lauding the group as "currently the greatest string quartet in the world," the London Guardian says, "The consummate artistry of the Takács is simply breathtaking." The quartet wil perform with Joyce Yang, who was the silver medalist at the age of 19 at the Twelfth Van Cliburn International Piano Competition in June 2005. The quartet will perform Franz Joseph Haydn's "Op. 74, No. 3," "Quartet No. 3 in B-flat minor," by Johannes Brahms, and Robert Schumann's "Piano Quintet."
