Pro Arte Quartet Perform at the Ephraim Moravian Church

Midsummer’s Music will feature Pro Arte Quartet on May 5 at 7:30 pm at the Ephraim Moravian Church. Pro Arte, celebrating its 100-year existence, will delight the audience with compositions from Haydn, Haribon and Franck.

Pro Arte Quartet is the only quartet in the world to have reached such legendary longevity. The ensemble has been in continuous existence since 1911, when its founding students at the Brussels Conservatory in Belgium organized the ensemble. The current members of the quartet are violinists David Perry and Suzanna Beia, violist Sally Chisholm and cellist Parry Karp.

Door County is a frequent venue for Pro Arte Quartet, as two of its members are also Midsummers’ musicians.

“Violinist David Perry is very popular with our audiences and is one of the most requested by patrons,” said Kathleen Pearson, executive director of Midsummer’s Music.

Midsummer’s Music offers unique concert settings where audience members are often close enough to read the musicians’ music.

Tickets for the performance are $25 for adults, $10 for college students, and children 17 and under are free. Reservations are recommended.
