Dover Quartet

After their stunning sweep at the Banff International String Quartet Competition, the Dover Quartet has rapidly become one of the most in-demand ensembles in the world. Known for expressive interpretations and a deep musical connection, the Grammy-nominated group has been honored with an Avery Fisher Career Grant and awards from Chamber Music America and Lincoln Center. In addition, they are Ensemble in Residence at their alma mater, the renowned Curtis Institute of Music. Their much-anticipated performance includes music by Amy Beach, Antonín Dvořák and George Walker. The Dover Quartet appears by arrangement with the Curtis Institute of Music, where it serves as the Penelope P. Watkins Ensemble in Residence.

Few young American ensembles are as exciting and accomplished as the Dover Quartet.
