Thank you San Francisco Classical Voice!

“If this concert is how listeners remember the Alexander String Quartet, then this performance will commemorate a group that went out at the peak of its abilities.” —David Bratman

This is a group going out at the top of its game, judging by the Alexanders’ brilliant performance in Burlingame on Sunday.

Big thanks to Iris Kwok and San Francisco Classical Voice for this terrific feature, in collaboration with the San Francisco Chronicle. Music at Kohl Mansion is deeply honored to close our season with the Alexander String Quartet's final Bay Area concert.

After more than four decades as an ensemble, the Alexander String Quartet will play one final concert in the Bay Area.

For the first time since announcing in 2024 that the group would disband in 2025, the ASQ members are speaking in depth about what led to their decision.

Hear more about why they’re parting ways, as well as their reflections on their legacy in the Bay Area.

Thank you, Iris Kwok and San Francisco Chronicle, for this well deserved tribute to the Alexander String Quartet prior to their grand finale at Music at Kohl Mansion!

The Alexander String Quartet says that the challenges of sustaining a career in the Bay Area led to the decision to part ways “on our own terms.”
