Kontras Quartet

3:00 p.m.
Orlin Trapp Auditorium
Vibrant String Quartet
The Kontras Quartet has been described as "a tightly crafted and beautiful instrument" (CVNC Arts Journal) and has been commended by Fanfare Magazine for their "enjoyable musical personality.” Kontras means "contrasts" in the Afrikaans language - fitting for a string ensemble whose colorful repertoire spans centuries, genres, and continents. The Quartet's recent engagements include tours of South Africa and Switzerland; broadcasts on Performance Today and a three-month residency with Chicago's WFMT 98.7 FM; appearances on NBC and PBS; and sold-out performances in San Diego, Chicago, Washington D.C., Telluride, Salt Lake City, Raleigh and Arizona.
