The Jupiter String Quartet
The Jupiter String Quartet is a particularly intimate group, consisting of violinists Nelson Lee and Meg Freivogel, violist Liz Freivogel (Meg’s older sister), and cellist Daniel McDonough (Meg’s husband, Liz’s brother-in-law).
Now enjoying their 20th year together, this tight-knit ensemble is firmly established as an important voice in the world of chamber music.
The New Yorker claims, “The Jupiter String Quartet, an ensemble of eloquent intensity, has matured into one of the mainstays of the American chamber-music scene.”

Opera – Johann Strauss Jr’s
Die Fledermaus
The Lionel Hampton School of Music presents Johann Strauss Jr’s Die Fledermaus. Join us as we waltz our way through masked balls, mistaken identities, and intrigue in this golden age Viennese bedroom comedy. Be prepared for a hint of risqué charm that might just leave you blushing from the scandal that unfolds. But fear not, the true culprit is none other than the effervescent champagne!
The opera is sung in German with English supertitles and dialogue and showcases the collaboration of LHSOM and the Theatre Department, accompanied by Strauss’ unforgettable melodies played by the U of I orchestra.

Lysander Piano Trio
The Lysander Piano Trio has been praised by "The Strad" for its “incredible ensemble, passionate playing, articulate and imaginative ideas and wide palette of colors” and by "The Washington Post" for “an uncommon degree of heart-on-the-sleeve emotional frankness” and “vivid engagement carried by soaring, ripely Romantic playing.”
The group has developed a reputation for exciting programming, finding creative ways to connect well-known masterworks with pieces by lesser-known and underrepresented composers, discovering common threads across cultures and times. The Trio’s most recent album, "Mirrors," featuring world-premiere recordings of six works the ensemble has commissioned or premiered, was released in early 2021 by First Hand Records.
