This February, our star-studded chamber series will turn star-crossed in this musical tribute to the ecstasies and exquisite pains of love known to all Valentines. From references to Romeo and Juliet in Beethoven's Op. 18 No. 1 Quartet to Alexander Borodin's String Quartet No. 2, popularized by the musical and love story Kismet, the Artisan String Quartet will have you swooning! Also to be featured are quartets by Joseph Bologne (the first classical composer of African descent to gain worldwide acclaim) as well as Edward Grieg.

If that sounds like too much great music for one program, you're right! That's why Artisan String Quartet will be performing a substantially different program at each performance!

Dating back to 1856, the Neill-Cochran House is one of the ten oldest buildings in Austin. Its columned, Greek facade and rough, brick exterior is an historic and ideal setting for Beerthoven's mix of refinement and approachability.

Kids are welcome! Tickets for children as well as students through college age are available for $10. Purchase at the door or email daniel@beerthoven.com for advance student tickets.
