WASHINGTON: On Saturday, April 5, 2008 at 8pm, the Vogler Quartet will bring to a close the Dumbarton Concerts 30 th Anniversary season with a performance of the crown jewel of chamber music – Schubert's Cello Quintet.

Founded in East Berlin in January 1985, the Vogler Quartet celebrated their 20th anniversary in 2005 with its members unchanged. They quickly established themselves as one of the finest quartets of their generation. Mastering a repertoire of over 200 works from all periods of music, they are widely characterized by their extraordinary musical intelligence, highly creative playing with homogenous sound, rich nuances, powerful interpretations and unconventional programming.

Joining the Quartet for a rare performance of Arensky's Quartet for 2 celli, violin and viola as well as the Schubert will be the brilliant young German cellist Daniel Müller-Schott, who has been described by The New York Times as “a fearless player with technique to burn...but even more impressive were his gorgeous, plush tone and his meticulous attention to expression.”
