The first chapter featured two evocative new works by Ger man composer Jörg Widmann\, inspired by Op. 130\, including its original ending\, the Grosse Fuge. In the 2025–26 season\, the journey continues with a new quartet by Iraqi-American composer Michelle Barzel Ross\, refle cting on the profound spirit of Op. 132.

The quartet’s lates t album on Sony (2021)\, featuring works by Beethoven\, Bartók\, and Dvo řák\, was released to international acclaim\, with Strings Magazine call ing it a “miracle of contrasting color”. Other notable releases includ e an album featuring the world premiere recording of Davidovsky’s Fragme nts (2018) alongside Beethoven’s Op. 95 quartet and Bartók’s Quartet No. 1. The JSQ’s recordings of the Bartók and Schoenberg quartets as we ll as those of Debussy\, Ravel\, Dutilleux\, and Beethoven have won Grammy Awards\, and in 2011 the JSQ became the first classical music ensemble to receive a lifetime achievement award from the National Academy of Recordi ng Arts and Sciences. \nThe JSQ is string quartet in residence at The Juil liard School in New York City and its members – Areta Zhulla\, Leonard F u\, Molly Carr\, and Astrid Schween – are all sought-after teachers on t he string and chamber music faculties.

Violinist Stefan Jackiw joins forces with p ianist and 2026-27 Schubert Club Featured Artist Conrad Tao\, and cellist Jay Campbell. \nStefan Jackiw is recognized as one of his generation’s m ost significant artists\, captivating audiences with playing that combines poetry and purity with an impeccable technique\, and hailed for playing o f “uncommon musical substance” that is “striking for its intelligenc e and sensitivity” (Boston Globe). Conrad Tao\, who appears worldwide as a pianist and composer\, has been dubbed a musician of “probing intelle ct and open-hearted vision” by the New York Times. Jay Campbell has been called “electrifying” by the New York Times\, and recognized for appr oaching both old and new works with the same curiosity and emotional commi tment. \nFor the Music in the Park Series debut\, the trio will perform Ro bert Schumann’s passionate masterpiece\, the Piano Trio No. 1 in D Minor \, and Maurice Ravel’s Piano Trio in A Minor\, completed in 1914 as Worl d War I was breaking out and Ravel himself was preparing to volunteer for military service.

In Conrad Tao’s hands\, that language becomes a point of conn ection\, linking Rachmaninoff’s sweeping lyricism to the music of Billy Strayhorn\, Harold Arlen\, and Stephen Sondheim—composers who likewise u nderstood melody as a way of holding onto feeling\, identity\, and home. B lending Rachmaninoff’s music with reimagined standards and moments of im provisation\, Tao creates a program that moves fluidly across musical worl ds while remaining anchored by a deeply poetic sense of home.
