Miró Quartet - Topic

The Miró Quartet is an internationally performing professional classical string quartet based in Austin, Texas. The group is the Quartet-in-Residence at the University of Texas and its members are on the faculty of the Butler School of Music. Its members are Daniel Ching, violin; William Fedkenheuer, second violin; John Largess, viola; and Joshua Gindele, cello.
The Quartet was founded in 1995 by four students at the Oberlin Conservatory of Music. In 1997, two members left the group and were replaced by two new members who have remained in the group until this day.
Within the first five years of its founding, it had won first prizes in all the competitions it entered, including the Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition, the 6th Banff International String Quartet Competition and the Naumburg Chamber Music Award. It was awarded Chamber Music America's prestigious Cleveland Quartet Award in 2005 and was also the first ensemble to receive the Avery Fisher Career Grant in that same year.
The Miró Quartet regularly tours throughout North America, Asia, and Europe.
