Weekend Concert Series

Dover Quartet

Sunday, May 1, 2022
1:30 - 3:30 pm
Calderwood Hall

Program

Haydn, Quartet in D major, Hob.III:63, Op. 64, No. 5, “The Lark,” (1790)
Ravel, Quartet in F major (1903)
Tania León, Cuarteto No. 2 (2011)

Hailed as “the young string quartet of the moment” by the New Yorker, the Dover Quartet is one of today’s most exciting ensembles. From the iridescent melodies and elegant wit of Haydn’s genre-defining tour de force, to the lush colors and poignant lyricism of Ravel’s only string quartet, and the improvisatory solos and rhythmically propulsive dialogues of Léon’s contemporary take, the Dover Quartet brings their bold and expressive sound to a program of string quartet masterpieces.
