Dior String Quartet

Joined together from Israel, Korea-Canada, Saint Lucia, and the USA, the Dior Quartet is the Quartet-in-Residence at the Glenn Gould School, Royal Conservatory of Music in Toronto, Canada. Winners of the 2023 Concert Artists Guild Victor Elmaleh Competition, the quartet formed in Fall 2018 at the Jacobs School of Music, Indiana University under the Pacifica Quartet. They are Silver prize winners of the 2021 Chesapeake Chamber Music Competition, quarter-finalists of the 2022 Banff International String Quartet Competition and 2021 Bartok Competition, and Bronze Medalists of the 2019 Fischoff Chamber Music Competition.

The Dior Quartet has performed and participated in various programs and concert series in Canada, USA, Netherlands, and the U.K. They were semi-finalists of the Banff and Melbourne International String Quartet Competitions. The repertoire and projects they pursue intersect with their multicultural backgrounds and moral values, as they seek to explore the immigrant experience through art. The quartet takes their name from the French word “D’or” which means gold.
