The Doric Quartet
About the Event
With several spectacular awards and releases on the resume, the Doric Quartet has established itself as one of the most significant quartets of its generation. They are now performing in leading concert halls, including the Amsterdam Concertgebouw, Vienna Konzerthaus, Berlin Konzerthaus, Hamburg Elbphilharmonie, Louvre, Carnegie Hall and Kioi Hall Tokyo. In addition, they regularly perform at the Wigmore Hall.
The quartet was founded in 1998 and has recorded for Chandos Records since 2010. In 2019, they recorded Britten’s collected string quartets and received excellent reviews. Their Haydn recordings have also won great applause – including election of ‘Editor’s Choice’ in Gramophone and ‘Choc du Mois’ in Classica Magazine.
