Winners of the Grand Prize at recent Plowman and Yellow Springs chamber music competitions, as well as awards from the M-Prize and Wigmore Hall international competitions, the Vera Quartet was recently named String Quartet in Residence at the Curtis Institute of Music.
Formed in 2015, the quartet has worked with the Pacifica Quartet as the Graduate Quartet in Residence at the Jacobs School of Music and, in April 2017, was selected as Young Artist in Residence at NPR’s Performance Today.
The quartet has also been coached by members of the Juilliard, Cleveland, Brentano and Tokyo string quartets, as well as Atar Arad, Mauricio Fuks, and Peter Stumpf.
