Friday, 8 December, 4pm, Perkins Library Rare Book Room. Limited Seating! Reception following the program.
For the last fall program of the Rare Music series, the Ciompi Quartet will perform and engage with the audience in a conversation about the instruments they play. The Ciompi Quartet was founded in 1965 by the renowned Italian violinist Giorgio Ciompi. While the group performs in Europe, the U.S., and Asia, it continues to play a leading role in the cultural life of its home state of North Carolina and Duke University, where the Quartet members teach.
The Rare Music series is co-sponsored by the Duke University Musical Instrument Collections and the Duke University Libraries, with additional financial support from the Carrabina Endowment, the Office of the President, and the Office of the Dean of the Humanities in the Arts and Sciences.
