    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.

    The Sad Lesson of Tyre Nichols
    By Tommy Acosta
    Having grown up in the mean streets of the Bronx there is one lesson we learn early on, and that’s don’t mess with the cops when they got you down, and outnumbered. The beating of Tyre Nichols at the hands of the police preceding his death at the hospital could have been avoided if only he had the sense to not resist them. People fail to understand that on the streets, cops are basically “God.” You can’t fight them. If it takes one, two, five, ten or twenty officers they will eventually put you down and hurt you if they have to in the process of detaining or arresting you. In the Bronx we would fight amongst ourselves but when the cops came it was “Yes, officer. No, officer,” and do our best to look as innocent as possible. People need to understand that cops on the street represent the full power of the state and government. Read more→
