Ébène String Quartet, Princeton University Concerts

Wednesday April 8, 2026
7:30 PM

Each time the Ébène Quartet takes the stage at Princeton University Concerts (PUC), they leave the audience spellbound! Their return to PUC, on Wednesday, April 8, 2026 at 7:30PM in Richardson Auditorium, Alexander Hall—by overwhelming demand—promises a program that includes one of Mozart's rare string quartets in a minor key, Ravel's only String Quartet, and Brahms' String Quartet Op. 51 No. 2. This program is a powerful testament to the Ébène Quartet's unparalleled mastery. Süddeutsche Zeitung raves: "The way scents seem to transition into sounds, echoes resonate from the depths of space, and the four intertwining attentively, only to then grab hold vigorously and expand vivaciously —it was exhilarating."
