The concert, presented by , will include early string quartets from Europe and South America by Haydn, Sirmen, Bologne, Mozart and Peruvian composer Pedro Ximenez Abril Tirado 鈥� the 4-year-old ensemble鈥檚 namesake.

The quartet 鈥� Montreal-based violinist Karin Cue虂llar, Canadians Simon Alexandre on violin and violist Jimin Dobson, and American cellist Jessica Korotkin 鈥� got together in fall 2019 out of their love for exploring music by lesser-known composers. The quartet鈥檚 mission is to bring this repertoire to the 鈥渃oncert platform in a sensitive, historically informed and contextualized manner that seeks to place this music on equal terms with that of the canonic, mostly Euro-centered repertoire,鈥� according to press materials.

To do that, the ensemble, which debuted at the Montreal Baroque Festival and has participated in a number of early music festivals since, performs on period instruments and draws its repertoire from composers who aren鈥檛 on a lot of ensembles鈥� setlists.

Their recital on Sunday begins at 3 p.m., with a preconcert talk at 2:30 at Grace St. Paul鈥檚 Episcopal Church, 2331 E. Adams St. Tickets are $30.90 through .
