Grammy-winning Parker Quartet
The winners of the 2011 Grammy Award for chamber music number among the top performers scheduled to appear over the coming year at UCLA's William Andrews Clark Memorial Library. In addition to the Parker Quartet, the eight-concert season includes a command performance by Augustin Hadelich, widely considered the best young violinist active today. The season runs from Sunday, Oct. 30, through Sunday, April 22, 2012, at the gem-like 1926 library, located in Los Angeles' historic West Adams district. "I'm extremely pleased to continue the long and proud tradition of Chamber Music at the Clark," said Barbara Fuchs, the newly appointed director of the UCLA Center for 17th- and 18th-Century Studies, which organizes the concerts. "This promises to be our best season ever." - During its 17-year history, Chamber Music at the Clark has earned a reputation as a launching pad for up-and-coming American talent and for fine foreign ensembles seeking to make inroads in the U.S. The approach has proven so successful that groups continue to return long after establishing themselves. But demand consistently outstrips seating in the intimate venue, so organizers distribute tickets by lottery.
