Come extend your April Fool’s festivities with the Deering Quartet! Together, we'll go on a journey through the sillier side of quartet repertoire. For anyone who thinks classical music is too serious, or anyone who just wants to laugh and have fun, this is the concert for you! Prepare to be tickled and confused by the ridiculous shenanigans onstage! You’ll hear Haydn's endless “Joke” Quartet and Ives' sassy Second Quartet and much, much more, performed with all the goofs and gags you could hope for. Prepare for the side of classical music you’ll never get to see at your local symphony! This concert is perfect for families with children and general audiences who are looking for a laugh.

This concert is approximately 60 minutes long.
