Queen City Strings has been performing in Western New York for nearly two decades. Formed primarily as a working string quartet, the ensemble has matured into an artistic force in the Buffalo area. QCS gives several concerts of classical and modern music throughout each year and is a proud sponsor of Shakespeare in Delaware Park and the Kevin Guest House, for whom the quartet provides entertainment during special events.
