The Quartet will be performing the Brahms’ F minor Piano Quintet with pianist Leon Fleischer in a free concert at Noon on October 6th at Mills Concert Hall in Madison. The group was founded in Belgium 100 years ago, but they became “Artists in Residence” at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1938.
