    Sedona News – Chamber Music Sedona is excited to announce the long-awaited return of the Dover Quartet, performing a concert on Sunday, March 5, 2023 at the Sedona Performing Arts Center. One of the most in-demand chamber ensembles in the world, the Dover Quartet currently consists of violinists Joel Link and Bryan Lee, violist Hezekiah Leung, and cellist Camden Shaw. At the March 5 concert, the GRAMMY®-nominated Quartet will perform a program of works by Joseph Haydn, William Grant Still, and Antonin Dvorak. 

    Named one of the greatest string quartets of the last 100 years by BBC Music Magazine, the Dover Quartet has enjoyed a rapid rise to international acclaim since its formation at the Curtis Institute of Music. The group has earned numerous awards and accolades, including a stunning sweep of all prizes at the 2013 Banff International String Quartet Competition, an Avery Fisher Career Grant, Chamber Music America’s Cleveland Quartet Award, and Lincoln Center’s Hunt Family Award. Most recently, the Dover Quartet announced that it received two new GRAMMY nominations in 2022: Best Chamber Music/Small Ensemble Performance for Vol. 2 of the group’s Complete Beethoven String Quartets recording (released by Cedille Records), and Best Contemporary Classical Composition for its recording of Andy Akiho’s LigNEous Suite with Ian David Rosenbaum.

    The Dover Quartet, which draws inspiration from the lineage of the distinguished Guarneri, Cleveland, and Vermeer Quartets, serves as the Penelope P. Watkins Ensemble in Residence at the Curtis Institute of Music. In this role, the group can access resources that allow them to experiment with new technologies and engage audiences through digital means, while working closely with students in the Nina von Maltzahn String Quartet Program – from which they recruit the most promising young string quartets and foster their development in order to nurture a new generation of leading professional chamber ensembles. The Dover Quartet also holds residencies with the Kennedy Center, Bienen School of Music at Northwestern University, Artosphere, and the Amelia Island Chamber Music Festival.

    Analyzing City’s Legal Right to
    Ban OHVs on Public Roads

    By Tommy Acosta
    Mea Culpa! Mea Culpa! Mea Maxima Culpa! I screwed up. Blew it. Totally made a fool of myself. Missed the boat. I am talking about my editorial on the OHV fight, No Legal Traction on OHVs. I assumed that it was ADOT that would make a decision on whether the city could legally ban off road vehicles from our public roads like S.R. 89A and S.R. 179. Man was I off. ADOT has nothing to do with allowing or disallowing the city to do so. ADOT’s response to me when I asked them to clarify their position, was curt and to the point. “ADOT designs, builds and maintains the state highway system,” I was told. “It is not our place to offer an opinion on how state law might apply in this matter.” It was a totally “duh” moment for me when I realized that that the decision or judgement on the OHV ordinance, would involve the state and not ADOT. Chagrinned I stand. The crux of the matter then is whether the city can effectively use a number of standing state laws that can be interpreted to determine whether the city can legally ban the vehicles or not.
