The Garth Newel Piano Quartet offers fresh and innovative insights into the chamber music repertoire.  They have performed extensively throughout the United States and on five continents.  With broad teaching and coaching experience, they lead the annual Garth Newel Student Fellowship Program and Amateur Chamber Music Retreat, and have taught at numerous summer festival workshops.  Their performances are informal and conversational, and they possess the rare ability to captivate a wide variety of audiences with the spirit and passion they bring to every concert.  This concert is supported by the Virginia Commission for the Arts.

Recent tours have included concerts at New York’s Carnegie Hall, the Corcoran Gallery, Strathmore Hall, Virginia Military Institute, The Lyceum in Alexandria, Williamsburg Chamber Music Society, Washington Conservatory of Music, the University of Memphis, and the San Diego Chamber Music Workshop.  They are on the Tour Directory for the Virginia Commission for the Arts.

The Garth Newel Piano Quartet maintains a strong dedication to education and the next generation of chamber musicians.  They serve as faculty for the Garth Newel Summer Fellowship Program for college-age musicians and work regularly with local public schools.  They also coach adult and student ensembles and host the Garth Newel Amateur Chamber Music Workshop each March.

The quartet has recorded two CDs featuring masterworks of the piano quartet repertoire: Mozart’s Quartet in G minor, KV 478 and the Brahms Quartet in G minor, Opus 25, Dvorak’s Quartet in E-flat Major, Opus 87 and the lesser-known Czech work, Bohuslav Martinu’s Quartet No. 1.
