Chamber performance in Palm Beach
There’s nothing quite like an afternoon set to the sound of strings — and who better to provide that classical background than a quartet? Music lovers can enjoy a performance from the Pacifica Quartet, an internationally recognized chamber ensemble, along with special guest clarinetist Anthony McGill at The Society of the Four Arts this Sunday. This talented group was previously the quartet-in-residence at the Metropolitan Museum of Art — a high pedigree!
Pacifica Quartet with Anthony McGill: 3 p.m. Sunday. Tickets are $30. The Society of the Four Arts, 100 Four Arts Plaza, Palm Beach. Info: 561-655-7226 or www.fourarts.org.
