SUMMARY:Pro Arte Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Pro Arte Quartet \nJanuary 9\, 2026 | 7:30PM \nLogan Center Performance Hall \n915 E. 60th Street \nThe first and only quartet ever to reach its centennial anniversary\, the Pro Arte Quartet brings a remarkable century of experience behind every note. Founded in Brussels in 1912\, Pro Arte has been in residence at the University of Wisconsin-Madison since 1940. The ensemble boasts a storied history — Bartók’s monumental fourth quartet is dedicated to Pro Arte\, and they premiered Barber’s iconic Op. 11 (“Adagio for Strings”). \nPro Arte Quartet’s UChicago program explores voices old and new: Caroline Shaw’s Entr’acte—a work full of subtle\, technicolor transitions; contemporary Ukrainian composer Denys Lytvynenko’s sorrowful String Quartet No. 2; and Beethoven’s String Quartet in F Major\, Op. 59\, No. 1\, the second of the composer’s beloved\, Russian-inspired “Rasumovsky” quartet cycle. \nFree admission
