LOS ANGELES -- The Music Guild, now in its 67th year, will present Carpe Diem String Quartet in a series of February concerts featuring works by Hugo Wolf, Claude Debussey, Korine Fujiwara and Felix Mendelssohn.
Carpe Diem is one of the most versatile quartets of its generation. The group's eclectic musical interests have led them down the paths of gypsy, tango, folk, pop, rock and jazz-inspired music, while remaining equally at home with traditional string quartet repertoire. In 2010 and 2011, Carpe Diem was the only quartet in America chosen to receive prestigious ArtsAlive Awards from the PNC Foundation.
The Music Guild's concerts are held, on successive evenings, at Cal State Long Beach; University Synagogue, Brentwood; and Cal State Northridge. For tickets and information call 310-558-3500 or visit themusicguild.org.
