Koeckert Quartet

Mr. Frankl, now a resident of
London, has won several prizes
for his European performances,
for which it was said that "Greatness
was revealed in every aspect
of his art."

On February 20 the Series will
present the Koeckert Quartet, a
foursome of chamber music.
Founded by violinist Rudolf Koeckert,
whose son also is a member,
the group has performed extensively
across America, drawing
reviews that "their music is
so warm and humane that it
speaks directly to the sense."

One critic said that "Right off
it became evident that a first-rate
ensemble was at work.
Nothing seemed forced. There
was precision, balance, restraint;
in short, everything sounded exactly
right."
