About the Calidore String Quartet

Described as “four highly intelligent, deeply sensitive virtuosos” (Strings Magazine) the Calidore String Quartet has established itself an international reputation for its informed, polished and captivating performances. Formed at the Colburn Conservatory of Music in Los Angeles in 2010, The Calidore has already made debuts in such prestigious festivals as Verbier,  Ravinia and the Schneider Concert Series (NYC) and is a featured “Young Artist-in-Residence” on  American Public Media’s “Performance Today”.

Most recently, the Calidore String Quartet was appointed as “Quartet-in-Residence” at Stony Brook University for the 2014-2015 and  2015-2016 academic years, a position that includes performances, outreach and collaboration and  mentorship from the Emerson String Quartet and David Finckel.

In addition to their residency at Stony Brook, highlights of the 2014-2015 season include performances at Wigmore Hall, Lincoln Center, the Phillips Collection, Shriver Hall, the National Arts Centre in Ottawa, and a residency at Caramoor.

About the Ernst Stiefel Quartet-in-Residence program at Caramoor

The Ernst Stiefel Quartet-in-Residence performs at Caramoor throughout their residency, enabling the public to experience these exciting, young players in an intimate setting.  The Calidore Quartet is the 15th Ernst Stiefel Quartet-in-Residence at Caramoor.  They will be visiting schools in the fall and spring and performing concerts at Caramoor in the fall, spring, and summer.
