Westchester Chamber Music Society presents The Calidore String Quartet

The Calidore String Quartet was founded at the Colburn Conservatory of Music, in Los Angeles, in 2010. An amalgamation of California” and doré (golden), the name represents the ensemble’s reverence for the diversity of culture and the strong support it received from its original home, Los Angeles, California, “the golden state.” The Calidore String Quartet has been praised by the New York Times for its “deep reserves of virtuosity and irrepressible dramatic instinct.” The Washington Post has said that “Four more individual musicians are unimaginable, yet these speak, breathe, think and feel as one.”
