A chamber music concert featuring a string quartet curated and performed by St. Louis Symphony Orchestra musicians.
The St. Louis Symphony Orchestra brings a string quartet to The Sheldon on Thursday, March 4, 2027, as part of its Live at The Sheldon series. This isn't a full orchestra night; it's a chamber concert, which means a smaller group of musicians playing in a more intimate setting than the big hall. The program is curated and performed by two SLSO musicians, Hannah Ji on violin and Alejandro Valdepeñas on viola, who pull together the quartet and the repertoire themselves.
That's the thing about Live at The Sheldon that sets it apart from the usual SLSO season. The series is built around the musicians taking the lead: they choose the pieces and put the ensemble together, so each concert has a different lineup of instruments and players. The repertoire mixes new work with older, treasured pieces, and since the musicians are the ones curating, the program reflects what they're actually excited to play. It's a more personal way to hear the people who usually spend their nights as part of the full orchestra.
The series is sponsored by the Sinquefield Charitable Foundation and welcomed by Classic 107.3, and it's designed as a chamber-music offering from the SLSO, bringing that sound to The Sheldon stage. Because the musicians curate their own nights, the lineup changes from one concert to the next, so this particular quartet is the one Ji and Valdepeñas have put together for this date.
