The Telegraph Quartet returns to Berkeley Chamber Performances to open our 2026–27 season with a remarkable, resonant program celebrating three emotionally gripping composers spanning two centuries of musical brilliance: Mendelssohn's radiant elegance, Shostakovich's searing emotional depth, and Korngold's gloriously Romantic splendor — as rich and transporting as anything in the chamber canon.Praised by The New York Times as "full of elegance and pinpoint control," this internationally lauded ensemble has performed at Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, and the Philharmonie de Paris — a Bay Area quartet of the world stage, coming home for a thrilling start to our season.
