The New York Philharmonic String Quartet comprises four principal musicians from the Orchestra: Concertmaster Frank Huang; Principal Associate Concertmaster Sheryl Staples; Principal Viola Cynthia Phelps; and Principal Cello Carter Brey. The group was formed in January 2017, during the Philharmonic’s 175th anniversary season; the New York Philharmonic String Quartet made its debut as the solo ensemble in John Adams’s Absolute Jest in New York in March 2017. The quartet has since appeared throughout the United States, in a tour of South Korea, and at the Montreal Chamber Music Festival. All four members are considered first-class musicians; they are multiple prize winners, have appeared as concerto soloists with the Philharmonic and orchestras around the world, and have appeared frequently in the Philharmonic’s chamber music series at David Geffen Hall and Merkin Concert Hall.
At the Vilar Performing Arts Center show, the evening’s program includes Mozart’s Quartet in G Major, K. 387; Ravel’s String Quartet in F Major; and Dvorak’s String Quartet No. 12 in F Major, Op. 96, nicknamed the “American.”
