STEUBENVILLE, OHIO—Four musicians from the world-renowned will perform at ̽������ on Monday, October 27, at 6:00 p.m. in the Pope St. Paul IV Event Center in Christ the Teacher Hall. The event is free and open to the public.

Presented by Chamber Music at Franciscan, the concert will feature Mozart’s String Quartet No. 14 and Felix Mendelssohn’s String Quartet No. 4.

Performers include Joel Link, concertmaster of the Cleveland Orchestra and first violinist of the internationally acclaimed Dover Quartet; Stephen Rose, principal second violin; Wesley Collins, principal viola; and Tanya Ell, cello.

Appointed concertmaster in 2025, Link is an award-winning soloist and chamber musician whose honors include first prize at the 2013 Banff International String Quartet Competition, the gold medal and grand prize at the 2010 Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition, and a top prize at the Yehudi Menuhin International Violin Competition.

The 90-minute performance is part of ̽������’s ongoing effort to elevate beauty as a vital companion to truth and goodness in education.

“Today, words are plentiful and have lost their credibility, but beauty enters the soul in a mysterious way and gives credibility to our words,” said Stanley Konopka, director of ̽������’s New Chamber Orchestra. “An encounter with beauty is an encounter with God. Supporting the arts on campus strengthens the three-legged stool of truth, goodness, and beauty—without one, we cannot have the others.”
