Acclaimed for its “sublime, incandescent” playing (Chicago Classical Review), the Dudok Quartet Amsterdam is the 2018 winner of the Borletti-Buitoni Trust award and The Netherlands’ coveted Kersjes Prize. The quartet’s recent projects have included the world premiere of Kaija Saariaho’s opera Only the Sound Remains, a collaboration with director Rosabel Huguet reimagining Beethoven’s Op. 132 String Quartet for children, and the recording and release of the first installment of the complete Tchaikovsky string quartets. Concert highlights include the group’s Australian debuts at the UKARIA Cultural Centre and Canberra International Festival, as well as the performance of John Adams’ Absolute Jest with the Netherlands Radio Philharmonic.
