Vega String Quartet Student Showcase

The Vega String Quartet Student Showcase is an afternoon of classical music presented by students of the Emory Youth Chamber Program.
EYCP provides intensive small ensemble training to young Atlanta-area pianists and string players. Students are generally 10-18 years old. Over the course of the semester groups receive coaching sessions from members of the Vega Quartet and participate in masterclasses with the Quartet as well as with guest artists.
The Vega String Quartet, Quartet-in-Residence at Emory University, is cultivating a new generation of chamber music lovers through dynamic performances and innovative community engagement. The New York Times raved that "[the Quartet's] playing had a kind of clean intoxication to it, pulling the listener along… the musicians took real risks in their music making".
The concert is followed by a question and answer session with the performers.
