Quartet San Francisco
Maybe one of the biggest disservices we do to music is to put it in a box, to focus on categories and genres and differences. The genre-bending Quartet San Francisco is wildly eclectic, making it their business to break down musical walls. Violinist Matthew Szemela says, "It's not a different language. It's different dialects of the same language." Quartet San Francisco joins PT host Fred Child in the studio today for conversation and music by Dave Brubeck, Chick Corea, and the rock band Jefferson Airplane.
