Cornell College's Music Mondays 10th anniversary season continues with the Ames Piano Quartet on Monday, November 19 at 7:30 pm in King Chapel. Ticekts are $10 general admission, $5 students and will be available at the door.
The Ames Piano Quartet, the resident chamber music ensemble at Iowa State University, holds a unique position in the chamber music field as one of the few piano quartets in the world. The combination of their lush string sound, blended with the orchestral quality of the piano, produces an exquisite and rare sonority.
The Washington Post aptly described it as "one of the most heavenly combinations of instruments around." The ensemble has toured throughout the United States, including concerts in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Detroit, Denver, San Diego, and Washington D.C. Internationally they have performed in Canada, Mexico, France, Austria, and the Far East. Most recently the Quartet spent a week concertizing and teaching in Havana, Cuba, the first American chamber music group to perform there in over forty years.
Mount Vernon & Lisbon residents and families in either school district can obtain a Purple Pass for free admission to Music Mondays and home athletic contests—available at The Commons Info Desk with ID.
