✨ The 15th triennial Banff International String Quartet Competition (BISQC) is underway this week at @banffcentre! One of the world’s most prestigious chamber music competitions, BISQC showcases the artistry and passion of the next generation of string quartets. 🎻🏔️ BridgeMusik team members were in attendance on Day 1 to cheer on the quartets and reconnect with this inspiring community. We are also proud to share that our Summer Festival faculty member @franciesilos was a founding member of the Colorado String Quartet, the winners of the very first BISQC in 1983 — a wonderful legacy linking past and present!
