About this event
About the Show IN BRIEF The Poiesis Quartet, First Prize winner at the 2025 Banff International String Quartet Competition, makes its debut on Emerald City Music’s stage. Formed at Oberlin Conservatory in 2022, the ensemble has been praised for its “multifaceted artistry” and “bold, forward-thinking programming” (The New York Times). For their debut, they present a program that considers music as a response to the political and human conditions of our time.
