Basically Beethoven Festival: July 1

Our first concert of the Festival will feature a string quartet: two violins, a viola, and a cello. Their program will include the piece String Quartet, No. 5 by Quinn Mason. Mr. Mason is an accomplished young composer who grew up in Dallas and graduated from Dallas ISD. He has won numerous awards, and is currently earning a degree in music composition at TCU. The Festival features professional musicians from local ensembles performing a diverse range of music. Every program includes a Rising Star Recital at 2:30 pm and a Feature Performance at 3 pm. Rising Star Recitals present local, gifted student musicians, many of whom are winners of area music contest and concerto competitions, and Feature Performances showcase professional musicians from across the Metroplex. Admission is FREE and performances are easily accessible by public transit and are attended both by longtime arts patrons and area residents who are new to classical music. Families with children are welcome. Festival performances are routinely standing room only—arrive early for the best seats!
