DOVER BIO:
“…the Dover Quartet players have it in them to become the next Guarneri String Quartet - they’re that good.” - The Chicago Tribune
Hailed as “the next Guarneri Quartet” (Chicago Tribune) and “the young American string quartet of the moment,” (New Yorker), the Dover Quartet catapulted to international stardom in 2013, following a stunning sweep of all prizes at the Banff Competition and has since become one of the most in-demand ensembles in the world. In addition to its faculty role as the inaugural Penelope P. Watkins Ensemble in Residence at the Curtis Institute of Music, the Dover Quartet holds residencies with the Kennedy Center, Bienen School of Music at Northwestern University, Artosphere, and the Amelia Island Chamber Music Festival. Among the group’s honors are the Avery Fisher Career Grant, Chamber Music America’s Cleveland Quartet Award, and Lincoln Center’s Hunt Family Award. The Dover Quartet has won grand and first prizes at the Fischoff Chamber Music Competition and fourth prize at the Wigmore Hall International String Quartet Competition.
In the 2020-21 season, the Dover Quartet debuts with Berkeley’s Cal Performances and embarks on its first-ever tour of Latin America, both of which will be conducted using virtual technology. Tour performances include collaborations with the Escher Quartet and harpist Bridget Kibbey. The quartet’s first volume of the complete Beethoven string quartet cycle, which focuses on the composer’s Op. 18 quartets, was released by Cedille Records in September 2020.
Among its many notable performances in 2019-20, the Dover Quartet made its Zankel Hall debut in collaboration with Emanuel Ax and returned to London’s Wigmore Hall. Other recent collaborators include Inon Barnaton, Ray Chen, Edgar Meyer, Anthony McGill, the late Peter Serkin, and Roomful of Teeth. Equally comfortable with repertoire from a range of eras, the quartet has worked with some of the world’s foremost living composers, including Caroline Shaw and Mason Bates.
Cedille Records released the Dover Quartet’s Voices of Defiance: 1943, 1944, 1945 in October 2017; and an all-Mozart debut recording in the 2016-17 season, featuring the late Michael Tree, violist of the Guarneri Quartet. Voices of Defiance, which explores works written during World War II by Viktor Ullman, Dmitri Shostakovich, and Simon Laks, was lauded upon its release as “undoubtedly one of the most compelling discs released this year” (Wall Street Journal).
The Dover Quartet draws from the lineage of the distinguished Guarneri, Cleveland, and Vermeer quartets. Its members studied at the Curtis Institute of Music and Rice University’s Shepherd School of Music, where they were mentored extensively by Shmuel Ashkenasi, James Dunham, Norman Fischer, Kenneth Goldsmith, Joseph Silverstein, Arnold Steinhardt, Michael Tree, and Peter Wiley. It was at Curtis that the Dover Quartet formed, and its name pays tribute to Dover Beach by fellow Curtis alumnus Samuel Barber.
The Dover Quartet is the Penelope P. Watkins Ensemble in Residence at Curtis. Their faculty residency integrates teaching and mentorship, a robust international performance career, and a cutting-edge digital presence. With this innovative residency, Curtis reinvigorates its tradition of maintaining a top professional string quartet on its faculty, while providing resources for the ensemble to experiment with new technologies and engage audiences through digital means.

I'm old and I grew up with movies where the camera angle didn't change every 2.5 seconds. I love the idea of the quartet more compressed, more focused physically, but please, the music moves so forcefully that two stationary cameras could capture the moment without being a distraction. The sound mixing of these new videos has been fantastic and, setting aside my curmudgeon-ness, I look forward to more Brooklyn/Dover collaborations.
Honestly it fit the piece perfect.
Holy Shit, Dover Kills ! 💪
The audio quality is A1 though. Which is the most important thing overall.
Are you kidding?! I love it!
I will always love the calm and relaxing style of Shostakovich's work.
lol!
calm and relaxing? LOL
I know, right! Helps me sleep.
I'm chillin' right now to this masterpiece!
😁🤣😁🤣 calm and relaxing in a mad composer kind of style
This really captures Shostakovich's feeling of having the secret police break down your front door
All of these performers did a great job transporting you into the room with Shostakovich. I checked that my door was locked after they finished. Many pieces of music are marked by their need for clarity, precision, and expression. This piece requires all of that while throwing yourself out the window emotionally and keeping it under control. I am absolutely astounded that this piece has had such a great performance.
0:54 this transition can get “muddy” in other versions.
This is best I’ve heard this piece.
Indeed, I am utterly agreed
This is the first recording I've heard where the viola in her solo actually digs into it with just as much energy as when the movement first starts. Most other quartets seem to get tired by this point.
That's what I was thinking!!
This is one of the few performances where the viola really shines.
As a former viola player. I 100% agree. Since violas are so underrated, no one really cares about them. But I love this price because it has such a cool viola part.
I wonder why they might be tired
relaxing classical music to study to
relaxing? LOL
@@davidrowe1004 that’s the joke. lol
nah this is so relaxing you can even fall asleep while listening
it's actually the emotions you feel when you're stressed before exam that are put into a sound
I actually study to this
The first violin was headbanging because of how heavy this metal was lol.
Janine Jansen also did that, and lost some bow hair in the process
Cello line starting at 1:15 slaps so hard!
And 0:53
Fr
(As a violist) Love how the violist really dug in and played with so much passion from beginning to end without even skipping a beat! Great work!!
It's like tech-death without the drums; why no metal drummer on TH-cam has taken up this piece is beyond me. There needs to be a drum cover of this particular interpretation.
Nah it’s already great as is
If you want something similar. Spawn of possession got your back but they already broke up.
This is the clearest, fastest, most chaotically beautiful interpretation of this song ive heard.
Wow! Shostakovich 8th is, for me, the greatest string quartet. After it lulls me with the cantor of its soft, pastoral opening, this movement is like holding on to a horse that bolts, galloping wildly as I hold on for dear life, yet utterly overwhelmed with joy. And I love how this performance turns it right the way to eleven. Exhilarating!
I would never describe the first movement as "pastoral"
Yeah, I like it too... -_-
As a metalhead, my brain is conditioned differently, so this is quite pleasant and relaxing. 😂
Man I love Viola
This piece makes me feel all the emotions, anger, anxiety, sadness, and on top of all that i get goosebumps through out the whole piece. So amazing work of art.
1:42 you're welcome
No words can´t describe this performance and the genius of Shostakovich. BRAVO!
I genuinely cannot breath while watching this video. How intense! My heart was twitching all the time till the last note.
This is the best quartet I have ever seen and heard on TH-cam. The four of them are on the same level, which is very rare! Hope to stick to it, you are the first quartet of TH-cam!
Absolutely agree!
I wouldn't piss off the cellist
The cellist is hot tho.
The violist
agent 47 if he never became an a hitman
End pins are weapons fo sho
this is by far my favorite recording/rendition of No. 8 mv. 2
Excellent performance! Its hard to channel Shostakovich, because of his.. extreme passion. Great job by these four!
How did they do it before modern technology? I mean flipping the pages! This music is so metal it's almost non-stop. How did they have time to flip the pages?
more than likely they have it memorized so they don’t really actually need the music
@@Jake-jy5pq easier than flipping pages tbh
Fun fact - every note is 4 notes per measure (quarter notes ;))
There’s 8 page turns per part. You definitely memorize it.
They simply didn't need to turn the pages as they memorized it. Lol
This song is at around 500 Bpm. There is no way to
So incredibly talented. Wow
The performers, the recording quality, the camera work, the setting, all of this is perfect. We should be paying to see this!
Everything is impressive in this video. Best version of this piece I've heard.
Exemplary, spine tingling, never quit. Loved your performance.
This is the best performance of one of the best pieces by (in my opinion) the best composer
0:53 was playing at full blast in my ears and I kept it like that. It legit scared me
Wow! Outstanding performance!
Bravoo, always a pleasure to hear new performances by the Dover Quartet 😎👏
Borodin, Emerson, Jerusalem... This is the new reference. An insanely good version!
This is what goes on in my head
As soothing as a spring morning at the DMZ.
The soundtrack of my life
The best version of this masterpiece
Shostakovich lived in a very difficult period of Russian history. This is what war and social unrest do to a person's mind.
Very true!
This is the cleanest and most poignant version I've ever heard of this piece!! Better than Jansen's! Some of her recordings (you know the one I'm talking about) are just god awful. This is crisp and balanced yet each part never fades to the background - which is the point!!! It's meant to be up in your face, that's why this movement is so short compared to the others in this suite (that and if this were any longer they wouldn't have any bow hairs left by the end haha)
In short, this recording is absolutely phenomenal, you've earned yourself a new fan :)
This is so so amazing. Thank you!! I loved the filmwork, too! It was so nice to see all the different players.
This is my soundtracks life
It feels like chaos in the world today which seems to never end but later there is a brightness that comes
loved the viola
This is the tightest quartet I've ever heard. Amazing~
This is the best interpretation I have heard. Pure pleasure.
That's awesome!!!
The ending always get me
Absolutely mesmerizing.
sounds so intense!
One of my favorite quartets
magnifique, vivant, émouvant
What camera focus? Was so entranced, didn't notice. Absolutely incredible!! Thank you!
Absolutely Wonderful!!! Staccato, Andanté, and Forte baby!!!!
2:20 best part imo
Great performance! So much energy!!!
Ahhh so good! Made me miss my orchestra days in high school
Best version ever
I loved her on season 15
this makes me want to scream in a good way
magnificent work!! i always love this specific tempo for the allegro molto, and you guys pull it off and make it seem effortless! bravo! 💕
this made me cry
Magnífico!
This somg is semibreve = 120, meaning that this song is 480 BPM.
This has become the soundtrack of my exams ahahah
Awesomeness!
like metal.= like shostakovich
This peace is the one of my favorites😍
And I took to these guys at once😇
Whenever I feel stressed or anxious, Dmitry S shows me how much worse I could be.
Amazing
Ah yes... Classical music is SO relaxing. 😌
Wow, that was aMAZing!
Me when I’m late for class
Amazing!
This is what is happening in my mind during an exam.

Linda música 🎶 🎶 🎶
simply amazing!
Holy Sh!t! Fantastic!
Aaagghhh Shostakovich!!

MARAVILHOSO!!!
No joke I've used this as studying music before 😂
1.25% for extra madness
Now that's shreding
DAAAAAAAAAAAAMN…. I want to watch the scary movie that has this soundtrack 😱❤️👏👏👏
Me too!!! This could totally be the score to a horror film. Love it!!!
🔪.......
I'd like to call that movie, Soviet Union.
Awesome
🤯
pure chaos and pandemonium
High intensity interval training
*Directed by Ari Aster*
GODDAMN.
Wowwwwww 😱👍🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
Curtis pride! This recording puts literally EVERYBODY ELSE to shame - including Borodin, Emerson etc. I'd dare say if you haven't studied at Curtis, don't even dare play this masterpiece. That would be a crime 😝
Apenas invocar a Mefistofeles para poder tocar así 🎻
need 8 min version, but its a technical death metal track on a gorguts album
Holy Shit, Strings Kill, Dover Kills ! 💪
2:20 this wants me to kill myslef
This should be titled "Norman Bates Goes Bat-Shit Krazy"
is it me, or is that the largest viola i've ever seen?
