He later worked closely with Sir Clifford Curzonin London.

New Orford String Quartet

A great Canadian success story! Violinists Jonathan Crow and Andrew Wan are concertmastersof the Toronto and Montreal Symphony Orchestras, respectively. Brian Manker is principal celloalso with Montreal Symphony and Eric Nowlin is principal viola at the Detroit Symphony,formerly with the TSO. In July 2009, the New Orford String Quartet arose from the fameand tradition of its glorious predecessor, giving its first concert to a sold-out audience at theOrford Arts Centre.

In the time since its creation, the New Orford String Quartet has seen astonishing success, givingannual concerts at Orford Music for national CBC broadcast and receiving unanimous criticalacclaim, including two Opus Awards for Concert of the Year. Reviews of the emsemble’s debutconcert in the Montreal Gazette applauded a concert performance that was “sweet, balancedand technically unassailable less than a week after their members met for the first time...Lustilyapplauded…the concert was true to the Orford name in its beauty and refinement. Indeed, therewas no trace of roughness anywhere”. Le Devoir described the musical result as “stupefying.”

Their concept – to bring four elite orchestral leaders together on a regular basis over many yearsto perform chamber music at the highest level – has resulted in a quartet that maintains aremarkably fresh and virtuosic perspective. While they tour major North American cities, theplayers also feel strongly about bringing their performances to small rural towns, andperforming works by Canadian composers.

In 2011 the New Orford String Quartet released its debut album of the final quartets of Schubertand Beethoven on Bridge Records, to international acclaim and hailed as one of the top CDs of2011 (JUNO nominated) by La Presse and CBC In Concert. They won the 2017 JUNO forclassical album of the year for their Brahms string quartet recording.

“…nothing short of electrifying…These four string virtuosos animate every note with uncommonpower and passion as well as elegance. Listen and weep.” The Star
