Joseph E. Fischoff and the South Bend Chamber Music Society founded the Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition in 1973 as a way of encouraging young people to pursue chamber music study and performance. Now, 30 years later, the Competition has grown to 62 participating ensembles in both wind and string categories from all over the world. Each year, the Grand Prize winning ensemble tours the country. Wabash is proud to welcome the 2003 Fischoff Competition winners, the Verklärte Quartet from the Cleveland Institute of Music.
In addition to their performance on Wednesday, the Verklärte String Quartet will hold a workshop all day on Tuesday, October 21 in the Fine Arts Center.
Upcoming Visiting Artists Series events includes Jodi Karem on November 4 and Eroica Trio on December 3.
