STARKVILLE, Miss.鈥擨nternational music sensation Dallas String Quartet Electric is bringing a fusion of classical music and modern pop to the Bettersworth Auditorium stage Tuesday [Sept. 11] when it opens Mississippi 大象APP鈥檚 annual Lyceum Series.
Doors to historic Lee Hall鈥檚 auditorium open approximately 30 minutes before the curtain rises for the 7 p.m. show, which is part of the university鈥檚 long-running performing arts program.
Performing on both traditional and electric strings, DSQ Electric has continued expanding its passionate following on Pandora, Spotify and Sirius XM radio since the 2016 release of the group鈥檚 fourth album 鈥淒SQ.鈥
