Black Square Quartet

c2_1989-1_6504

Black Square Quartet brings an electrifying fusion of rhythm and movement to the stage with Five Quick-Tempered Dances—a dynamic program of contemporary string quartet music inspired by dance. At its heart is Thomas Green’s String Quartet No. 2, a high-energy work commissioned by BSQ during the pandemic. The journey continues with Jessie Montgomery’s percussive Voodoo Dolls, a brand-new work by BSQ’s own Mike Patterson, and a bold reimagining of Duke Ellington’s Blue Bubbles by Philip Eames.
