About the Quartet
The Chicago Harp Quartet, founded in 2012, has quickly established themselves as the leading harp ensemble in the United States. Widely regarded as a Chicago treasure, the Chicago Harp Quartet has dedicated itself to presenting innovative, charismatic and forward-thinking programs of existing classics transformed for the ensemble as well as new commissions.
2015 is a banner year for the Quartet with premiers at Carnegie Hall and the Kennedy Center, educational residencies with Play on Philly!, New York University and Jacobs School of Music at Indiana University, return performances on both the LIVE from WFMT and Lyon & Healy Festival Concert series and an exciting multidisciplinary living art gallery project with Mozawa and Ho Etsu Taiko. The Quartet looks forward to premiering new works by composers Alfredo Rolando Ortiz and Nicholas Davies.
The 2013/14 season saw the release of the Quartet’s highly successful debut CD, Soirées d’été, named after their first commission by Bernard Andrès. CHQ gave a spotlight performance as well as a featured lecture at the 41st National Conference of the American Harp Society in New Orleans and established their own bi-annual Composition Contest.
