SUMMARY:DaPonte String Quartet Concert
DESCRIPTION:The program pairs Britten’s powerful String Quartet No. 2 with Dvořák’s rarely performed and deeply expressive Bass Quintet. Joining the quartet is renowned bassist Edwin Barker\, former Principal Bass of the Boston Symphony Orchestra and one of the nation’s leading chamber musicians. Composed in 1945\, Britten’s String Quartet No. 2 is a landmark work filled with emotional depth\, rhythmic vitality\, and a monumental concluding chaconne inspired by the music of Henry Purcell. Dvořák’s Bass Quintet brings a contrasting spirit of warmth and Bohemian color\, enriched by the sonorous addition of double bass.

His students have gone on to become stars in their own right\, including Charlie Puth\, John Mayer\, Susan Tedeschi\, Molly Tuttle\, Liz Longley\, and Gavin DeGraw. Today\, he continues to inspire audiences and students alike\, bringing his teaching to stages and institutions across the country. \nAn airplane-flying\, motorcycle-riding\, song-sharing original\, Livingston Taylor delivers more than a concert—he delivers a night you won’t forget. \nEvent Details:\nThis special performance takes place on the Reehl Stage (3rd Floor) at Johnson Hall Opera House in downtown Gardiner on Sunday\, May 31\, 2026.\nThe venue is handicap accessible.\nDoors open at 6:30 PM | Show begins at 7:30 PM \nTICKETS FOR LIVINGSTON TAYLOR CONCERT HERE: https://www.johnsonhall.org/event/livingston-taylor-2/ \nMake Gardiner Your Arts Getaway \nIf you’re looking for a cultural destination that feels real—not rushed\, not overproduced—Gardiner delivers.
