Jupiter Quartet & Jasper Quartet
Two acclaimed quartets join forces for a program of classic and contemporary octets. The Jupiter Quartet is “an ensemble of eloquent intensity ... one of the mainstays of the American chamber-music scene” (New Yorker); the “outstanding” Philadelphia-based Jasper Quartet (New Yorker) received acclaim by The New York Times for its album, Unbound, as one of the year’s best. The two quartets recently recorded a new album together, released by Marquis Classics in 2021.

RESERVE ADMISSION
Most of our 300 seats are for those who just show up — but as a courtesy to our friends who work late, we set aside some advance reservations for general admission. All other seats are 'first come, first served' and are available as early as 6:45 pm, when the doors open. Note that reservations are good for entrance only, not for specific seats. Reservations are void after 7:20pm.
If reservations are gone, don't worry — just show up! It is rare for Music Mondays to turn anyone away.
