Doric String Quartet

Doric String Quartet

The Oak Ridge Civic Music Association’s Chamber Series concert on Saturday features the Doric String Quartet. The concert will start at 7:30 p.m. at Oak Ridge Associated Universities Pollard Auditorium.

The Doric members are Alex Redington and Jonathan Stone, violins; Hélène Clément, viola; and John Myerscough, cello. The program includes Haydn’s String Quartet in B-flat, Opus 76 No. 4  “Sunrise”; Leos Janacek’s String Quartet No. 1 “Kreutzer Sonata”; and the Franz Schubert Quartet in G (D. 887).

The group spends time sharing their talents, techniques, and musical wisdom with young musicians in the area. Oak Ridge Symphony cellist Alicia Randisi-Hooker and her “Cello Leap Studio” is making arrangements for the quartet’s weeklong residency here.

The quartet will be working with individual students as well as string students at Oak Ridge High School, and the group will meet with high school students who are members of the Knoxville Symphony Youth Orchestra and with students at the University of Tennessee School of Music.

Tickets are $25 or $12 for students and can be obtained from the ORCMA website www.orcma.org or by calling the ORCMA office at (865) 483-5569. Concert tickets can also be purchased at the door.

The concert’s primary sponsors are the Tuesday Morning Musical Club and the University of Tennessee School of Music.  Additional sponsorship is provided by the Tennessee Arts Commission.
