What inspired him to create this masterpiece of a string quartet, as revolutionary as it is sublime? Learn the answer to this question and many more with composer-resident lecturer Bruce Adolphe and four excellent string players of the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center in this illuminating lecture-concert!
