The Final Curtain: Emerson String Quartet

The world-famous Emerson Quartet is coming to Prague on what is planned as its last tour of Europe.

After over four decades together, the Emerson String Quartet will disband in the Fall of 2023 and play in concert halls across the US and Europe for the very last time. We accompanied the Quartet in Prague for a performance with music by the German composers Johannes Brahms and Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy, and one of Antonín Dvořák’s greatest quartets.
