American Quartets: Antonín Dvořák & Wynton Marsalis is the newest album by the critically-acclaimed Euclid Quartet. This exciting new recording contains the beloved “American” String Quartet No. 12 in F Major, Op. 96 (1893) by Antonín Dvořák, and “At the Octoroon Balls” String Quartet No. 1 (1995) by Pulitzer Prize and GRAMMY® Award winning American trumpeter, composer, founder and artistic director of Jazz at Lincoln Center, Wynton Marsalis.
Praised for their "knockout performances" by The Los Angeles Times, the Euclid Quartet is resident string quartet at the Raclin School of the Arts at Indiana University South Bend. A portion of proceeds from sales of this CD will be donated to the IU South Bend Raclin School of the Arts String Scholarship Fund!
