The Dover Quartet Performs at Dumbarton Oaks
The Dover Quartet returned to Dumbarton Oaks on March 6 and 7 as part of the Friends of Music recital series. They performed Dmitri Shostakovich’s third string quartet, Mozart’s “Hunt” Quartet, and Caroline Shaw’s Plan & Elevation (The Grounds of Dumbarton Oaks). This appearance was the ensemble’s second at Dumbarton Oaks this academic year; the Quartet premiered Shaw’s piece at Dumbarton Oaks in November as part of the institute’s seventy-fifth anniversary celebration.
