Join the Kohler Foundation for an afternoon of Music at the Waelderhaus. On Sunday, September 14, we welcome the Pro Arte Quartet. The Pro Arte Quartet, founded in 1912, became the court quartet to Queen Elizabeth of Belgium. The quartet made its New York debut in 1926, and during its first visit to Madison in 1938 was stranded as Hitler invaded Belgium. The University of Wisconsin chancellor offered a permanent home to the quartet, following their concert on the campus, the first such residency at a major American university. Today, in addition to performances of standard classical repertoire, the Pro Arte continues its tradition of championing new music. The Pro Arte Quartet performs throughout the United States, Europe and Asia, has performed at the White House, and is the resident ensemble of the Chazen Museum of Art, for whom they perform a series of five live radio broadcasts per season.
