Presented by the School of Music at SF State, this master class has been graciously facilitated by San Francisco Performances, which will present Yang with SF State’s quartet-in-residence, the Alexander String Quartet, on Nov. 10 in Herbst Theatre. They will perform the piano quintets of Schumann, Schnittke and Brahms.
