For their Boston program, the Quartet’s selections span the standard quartet repertoire, from Mozart to Shostakovich; they will bring together works from three centuries and vastly different styles, and will infuse each with the exuberance, sensitivity, and care for which they are renowned.

Jakub Hrůša, a “serious, thoughtful conductor” (ArtsDesk) whose star is on the rise around the world, leads the distinctive Bamberg Symphony in this all-German, all-Romantic program. The orchestra performs Wagner’s Lohengrin Prelude and Tannhäuser Overture and Brahms’ Third Symphony, as well as Schumann’s Piano Concert with Lukáš Vondráček as the soloist.

An Ailey performance is always a special experience.
