The Wheaton College Artist Series presents the Harlem String Quartet in concert.
After the quartet made its debut at Carnegie Hall in 2006, the group has performed on stages around the world including in front of President Obama at the White House. The Cincinnati Enquirer described the group saying, "The Harlem Quartet is bringing a new attitude to classical music, one that is fresh, bracing, and intelligent."
