The Alexander String Quartet was performed well altogether, to say the least. I came to like the second piece, String Quartet in A minor, Op. 41, No. 1 composed by Robert Schumann,  the most. I believe the specific piece is called Adagio, which was performed by four professional musicians. There were total of four instruments used, the viola, the cello, and the two violins. The sound was rather relaxing yet very serious as the piece heightened. It sounded to me like a dramatic scene in a movie that was tragic or appalling. I noticed the similarity in some aspects from the Carnegie Hall performance and this performance, where the professional musicians cued eachother by taking in deep breathes. Each musician had their time to shine, when one of the musicians played different notes then the other three. Futhermore, the instrument's different tones blended in very well together yet distinctive at the same time, making the piece even more unique from the rest. However, too much classical music at one specific time might have been too much to enjoy and actually take note of as to listening to a few at a time, even with the short intermission. After listening to more then thirty minutes, I started to not be able to tell one from the other as well as I wanted to. All in all, I truly liked the performance and the professionalism that the musicians conveyed as well as the audience in listening. I liked the atmosphere, we were in with comfortable chairs for the audience to relax and appreciate (especially after a long day of classes).
