Music Mondays Presents: Aryaloka String Quartet
MONDAY APRIL 13TH, 2026 AT 2:00PM IN THE NORDIC HALL
The Aryaloka String Quartet is a group of 4 professional string musicians who draw inspiration from the great classical composers. Beth Welty and Mark Latham – violin, Noralee Walker – viola, Sandi-Jo Malmon – cello.
We are delighted to welcome the Aryaloka String Quartet back to Music Mondays at the Scandinavian Center to perform a thoughtful new program of string quartet music by the early 20th century French composer Maurice Ravel and three living composers: Arvo Part, Caroline Shaw and Philip Glass. These four composers may seem wildly different and yet they are united in their exploration of tone color, sensuality, repeated motives, stillness and energy.
Admission is free as usual, but donations are greatly appreciated. We accept cash or check (to Music Mondays Inc.) at the door, or checks by mail (email musicmondaysnewton@gmail.com for address), or online donations via Venmo (@Music-Mondays) or Zelle (musicmondaysnewton@gmail.com).
We are grateful to the Newton Cultural Council, a local council of the Massachusetts Cultural Council, as well as Village Bank of Newton, for their continued support.
