Our opening concert in the LCMS 2026/27 series features guitar and string quartet, and the rich expressive possibilities from plucked and bowed strings combined. The Valegro Quartet – Takanori Okamoto and Sophia Molina (violins), Haruka Makino (viola), Doraly Gill (cello) – are joined by guitarist Alexandra Păceană in music by Mozart, striking new arrangements of music by J.S. Bach and George Enescu, and one of the best-loved guitar quintets in the repertoire, the Quintet that Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco composed for Segovia in 1950.
