Dover Quartet & Leif Ove Andsnes: A Stellar Night at SOKA
04.12.24
The renowned Dover Quartet, recognized with a GRAMMY® nomination, will grace the stage alongside Norway's acclaimed pianist and GRAMMY® nominee, Leif Ove Andsnes, for an enchanting evening of music. Set for April 26 at 8 p.m. at the SOKA Performing Arts Center, this event is a highlight of their brief tour, which also features stops at celebrated venues like the Kennedy Center and Carnegie Hall.

The Strad magazine has commended them for their “exceptional interpretative maturity, tonal refinement, and taut ensemble.”
