The FSQ@USU 2026/27 Season opens with The Viola Burns Longer—a concert bursting with personality, creativity, and wit; continues with When You Think You Can’t Go Further, which pushes beyond the outer bounds of the quartet tradition; and closes with Memory, Longing, and What Extends Beyond, widening toward ecological memory, mortality, gratitude, and what survives us.
