Today's members carry on the Quartet's revered tradition. The Borodin's particular affinity with Russian repertory was stimulated by a close relationship with Shostakovich, who personally supervised the study of each of his quartets. Generations later, for their first-ever Calgary appearance, the Borodin Quartet is joined by Georgy Tchaidze, 2009 Honens Prize Laureate, for a performance of the composer's riveting piano quintet. At Rozsa Centre, University of Calgary 7:30 pm. $10 - $45. 403-299-0140, honens.com.. Event Details. Location: University of Calgary
