Doric String Quartet

In the organizer's words:

Double premiere with a contrasting program

A lot has happened since the Doric String Quartet filled the Small Hall of the Laeiszhalle with its "luminous beauty of sound" (The Daily Telegraph) at its last guest performance in Hamburg in March 2023. The following year, the ensemble opened a new chapter in its almost three-decade history by welcoming two new members! In this new formation, the Doric String Quartet is now performing in the Elbphilharmonie's Small Hall for the first time and has put together a program of delightful contrasts.
