Here's a chat with Arnold Steinhardt, First Violin, Guarneri String Quartet. Enjoy. It's hard to believe that the Guarneri Quartet ("...has no superior on the world's stages"..-New York Times) is retiring at the end of the 2008-2009 concert season after 45 years! Their final concert in Columbus is an all Beethoven program that includes the quartets opus 127 and 132. Arnold Steinhardt is staying overnight to attend a desert reception in his honor titled "Violin Dreams".
