The Mivos Quartet will give a free talk and concert on Thursday, April 17, in the Performing Arts Center Pavilion. Its members are violinists Olivia De Prato and Adam Woodward, violist Victor Lowrie Tafoya, and cellist Nathan Watts. They are devoted to bringing new string quartet music to audiences worldwide. The quartet has performed and closely collaborated with established and emerging composers representing a broad range of demographics and compositional aesthetics. Their pre-concert talk at 6 p.m. will focus on performing, commissioning, and collaborating on music being written today. For the concert at 7:30 p.m., they will perform pieces by Victor Báez, Ingrid Laubrock, George Lewis, and Cal Poly’s Julie Herndon. In recognition of their work in championing new music, the quartet received the Interpretation Prize at the Darmstadt Summer Courses and the 2019 Dwight and Ursula Mamlok Prize for Interpreters of Contemporary Music.
