A rare foursome devoted to contemporary music, from the celebratory to the cerebral. The Dublin Guitar Quartet has piloted an impressive list of premieres, new work and original arrangements from compositional giants—and works audiences clamor to hear—delivered with tremendous vitality and style. “A wonderful ensemble. The Dublin Guitar Quartet has carved a place for itself in the world of classical music.” —Philip Glass
Described as a "quartet with a difference" by the Irish Times, the Dublin Guitar Quartet is the first classical guitar quartet entirely devoted to new music. Since its formation at the Dublin Conservatory of Music and Drama, DGQ has worked to expand the limited repertoire by commissioning new works and adapting modern masterpieces from outside of the guitar repertoire.
