Email: balfour@tamu.edu For over a decade the Marian Anderson String Quartet has brought inspiration and hope to every segment of American society. With performance venues ranging from the concert stage to soup kitchens and from presidential inaugurals to juvenile correctional facilities, the Marian Anderson String Quartet continues to uphold its mission to create new and diverse audiences for the field of chamber music. On September 30,1989 the members of the Marian Anderson String Quartet came together, unaware that they would soon change history. At that time the ensemble was known as the Chaminade Quartet and in 1991 had gone on to win the International Cleveland Quartet Competition; becoming the first African American ensemble in history to win a classical music competition. To highlight their singular achievement, the members of the Quartet asked the permission of the great contralto, Marian Anderson, to use her name as the new name of their group. Miss Anderson responded with heartfelt approval. In a memorable show of thanks the Anderson quartet played for its legendary namesake and her nephew, the conductor James DePriest. The Marian Anderson String Quartet's artistic endeavors have brought them to such venues as New York City's Alice Tully Hall, the Corcoran Gallery, the Library of Congress, the Cleveland Institute of Music, Kilbourn Hall, the University of Southern California and the Chateau Cantanac-Brown (Bordeaux, France). The Quartet's distinguished history includes performances through the Da Camera Society, the San Luis Obispo Mozart Festival and the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center. On January 20, 1993 they performed at Washington D.C.'s Kennedy Center as part of the 52nd presidential inaugural celebration.

Extractions: by Loke Hoe-Yeong Nathan Milstein (1903 - 1992) was called the "prince of the violin" (and at one time, the "prince of the bow"). Harold Schonberg, in his obituary of Milstein published in The New York Times , wrote his famous line, "He could well have been the most nearly perfect violinist of his time". However, the name Milstein is rarely mentioned or known among the music-listening public. Which is a sad thing considering the esteem and admiration professional violinists and musicians alike then and now hold for him. But this problem can be easily explained; Milstein was a not "commercial" musician who could "sell". Rather, he was repelled by the demands of celebrity and never indulged much in publicity. The little-known fact is that Milstein's career is the longest ever in the history of violin playing - 72 years, from his official debut playing the Glazunov concerto with the composer conducting(!) in 1915, to his final concert in 1987 playing the Beethoven concerto with the New York Philharmonic, conducted by Erich Leinsdorf. Some time after his final concert, the violinist broke his arm, bring his career to an abrupt halt. A pity, considering that the healthy musician's career could have been ever longer!
