    Whew, thank goodness; I was wondering where the latest Anthea Kreston contributions were. I just listened to the first six string quartet podcast interviews. So great to hear quartet players being asked questions by a chamber musician, and to compare the different directions these quartets are taking. The Jerusalem quartet’s interest in exploring Yiddish music is especially intriguing.
