Victoria Summer Music Festival: Dover Quartet

Saturday, May 24 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

The Victoria Summer Music Festival presents the twice GRAMMY-nominated Dover Quartet in a performance of music by Mozart, Janáček, and Schumann.

Named one of the greatest string quartets of the last 100 years by BBC Music Magazine and “the next Guarneri Quartet” by the Chicago Tribune, the Dover Quartet is one of the world’s most in-demand chamber ensembles. The group’s awards include a stunning sweep of all prizes at the 2013 Banff International String Quartet Competition, grand and first prizes at the Fischoff Chamber Music Competition, and prizes at the Wigmore Hall International String Quartet Competition. The Dover Quartet is the Penelope P. Watkins Ensemble in Residence at the Curtis Institute of Music and Quartet in Residence at Northwestern University’s Bienen School of Music.
