The Cascade Quartet shares the stage with guest artist Sarah Dassinger as she interprets Erwin Schulhoff’s rustic, raw, and physical Five Pieces in movement. Audiences loved Sarah’s dance collaboration with the Chinook Winds last season. Franz Schubert excelled at writing vocal music, so the melodies of his quartets are often based on songs that were popular in his time.
