The Suzuki Alumni Project Presents the Jasper String Quartet with guest Yumi Kendall

Come hear the Jasper String Quartet's “sonically delightful and expressively compelling” (The Strad) and "powerful" (New York Times) performance in honor of their Suzuki roots.

"Our quartet is honored to be part of TSAP. Each of us began our musical journey in very different circumstances, but common among our experiences was the expert guidance and support of amazing Suzuki teachers. We owe them the fundamentals of our technique and musicality, but most of all for instilling in us a love and appreciation of great music - a passion that sustains us to this day."  - Jasper String Quartet

The Dryden Quartet is dedicating their TSAP performance to this unique and special event.

Join us for this special event in the DC area, which will include a Suzuki group class with local students. We hope to see you there!

Proceeds for this event will go to the local SAA chapter SAGWA, in recognition of their Suzuki work in the greater Washington, DC area.
