Every listener hears something different in a piece of music, and the way we hear a piece changes over time. Blueprint shows us how composer Caroline Shaw hears Beethoven. Written hundreds of years after the quartet that inspired it, Shaw’s Blueprint explores both the modernity and the timeless essence of Beethoven’s music.

Come join us for both string quartets, and hear for yourself how one influences the way you hear the other. If you don’t know her work already, Caroline Shaw is a great discovery — and Ludwig van Beethoven may never sound the same.
