Interview with WOSU's Jennifer Hambrick

Sunday afternoon the members of one of the world's great string quartets will go their separate ways after 20 years together on the international concert stage. The Cypress String Quartet performs its final concert Sunday, June 26 in the Opera Lab at San Francisco's War Memorial. As the quartet disbands, it leaves a legacy of 17 recordings, the commissioning of more than 30 new works for string quartet and countless acclaimed concerts around the globe. "It's a bittersweet experience," said Cypress Quartet violinist Tom Stone about anticipating the group's upcoming farewell concert. "We've had an incredible twenty years. I'm really looking forward to this last concert, but also sad."
