BEO STRING QUARTET
SAT, OCT 7, 2023 @ 7:30PM
Presented by Temecula Presents
VENUE: The Old Town Temecula Community Theater
The eclectic and highly-polished Beo String Quartet takes their name from a Latin word meaning ‘to bless, make happy, gladden, and delight.’ Founded in 2015, Beo has created a niche as a daring, genre-defying ensemble whose performances have been compared to those of the best among 21st-century international string quartets.
Beo made an auspicious New York début at the distinguished Morgan Library and Museum. New York Classical Review called their début “outstanding... the sheer sound of the quartet was invigorating and deeply satisfying. As was their artistry, which came across in both the programming and the playing... skill, passion, and strength... sheer expressive force.”
