The phenomenal Dover Quartet, our Quartet-in-Residence, catapulted to international stardom following a stunning sweep of the 2013 Banff Competition. Named the Cleveland Quartet Award-winner and honored with the coveted Avery Fisher Career Grant, the Dover has become one of the most in-demand ensembles in the world. The Quartet’s rise from up-and-coming young ensemble to occupying a spot at the top of their field has been “practically meteoric” (Strings). With its burnished warmth, incisive rhythms, and natural phrasing, the Quartet’s distinctive sound has helped confirm its status as “the young American string quartet of the moment” (New Yorker). The Dover serves as quartet-in-residence for the Bienen School of Music at Northwestern University, Chamber Music Northwest, Artosphere and Peoples’ Symphony in New York. The Dover also is the first-ever quartet-in-residence for the Kennedy Center. The ensemble will perform more than 100 concerts around North America during the 2019 season.
