Named one of the greatest string quartets of the past 100 years by BBC Music Magazine, the two-time Grammy-nominated Dover Quartet returns with an exciting program that connects new work by Emmy-winning American Indian composer Jerod Impichchaachaaha’ Tate with Dvořák’s beloved American quartet. Tate, a citizen of the Chickasaw Nation in Oklahoma, composes music that has been described as “rich, provocative and moving” by the New York Times and “lusty and vivid” by San Francisco Classical Voice. His co-commissioned work is paired with his arrangement of Pura Fé’s layered and rhythmic work Rattle Songs.
