About

Hailed by The New York Times as an "outstanding ensemble of young musicians", the Verona Quartet - Jonathan Ong and Dorothy Ro, violins, Abigail Rojansky, viola and Warren Hagerty, cello - is a winner of the 2015 Concert Artists Guild Competition, and in just three years, has earned a stellar reputation for delivering a “sensational, powerhouse performance” (Classical Voice America) every time they take the stage. Musical America recently selected the group as “New Artists of the Month” for May 2016, further setting the Verona Quartet apart as one of the most compelling young quartets in chamber music.

The group has garnered top prizes at numerous prestigious competitions worldwide: abroad at the Wigmore Hall International String Quartet Competition (née London International String Quartet Competition), the Melbourne International Chamber Music Competition and the 8th Osaka International Chamber Music Competition; and in the US at the Coleman, Fischoff, and Chesapeake Chamber Music Competitions; and the M-Prize International Chamber Arts Competition.

The Verona Quartet is currently the Graduate Resident String Quartet at The Juilliard School.
