For our next Edendale Up Close concert,
Saturday Sept. 7th at 12:00 noon,
we are excited to welcome the Fiato Quartet –
violinists Carrie Kennedy and Joel Pargman,
violist Aaron Oltman, and cellist Ryan Sweeney.
They will perform a program entitled
“American Harmonies: A Journey through Time and Tradition”, 
including Florence Price’s arrangements of gospel folk songs in counterpoint, Coleridge Taylor Perkinson’s “Calvary” String Quartet No. 1, and pieces by George Walker and Jessie Montgomery.
Fiato Quartet, winner of the 2022 Beverly Hills National Auditions, was formed in 2008. In addition to their acclaimed work as Fiato, they are also members of the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra, Los Angeles Master Chorale, Pasadena Symphony, Long Beach Symphony, New West Symphony, and Musica Angelica Baroque Orchestra. As studio musicians in Los Angeles, they also record music for movies and television. In addition to the standard quartet repertoire, Fiato has a passion for new music. They have premiered ten new string quartets by local composers, including works by Julia Adolphe and Adam Schoenberg. Each member of Fiato brings a unique set of experiences and training to the ensemble, having studied with the Tokyo, Takacs, Guarneri, American, Miami and Emerson Quartets.
