Formed in 1969 at the Juilliard School, and in residence at the Norfolk Chamber Music Festival since 1976, the Tokyo String Quartet has been universally acclaimed as one of the greats since its inception. After over 40 years of acclaimed international tours, concerts, recordings and universally regarded as one of the great String Quartets of the 20th-century, they are retiring. They have chosen to give their Last Concert at Norfolk, and have generously donated their fee to the Music Shed Restoration Fund. We hope you will join us for this final concert of a Chamber Music- and a Norfolk institution, as well as a beloved group with followers from around the world.
