Allegri String Quartet
This internationally known string quartet has been in existence since the early '50s. The original performers (Eli Goren, James Barton, Patrick Ireland, and William Pleeth) created the group in order to play the best of Classical and Romantic quartet literature. This tradition of the grand style has been keep alive by Peter Carter, violin (a member for 25 years); Rafael Todes, violin; Dorothea Vogel, viola; and Pal Benda, violoncello, among others. The quartet's intensive examination and rehearsals of traditional works has resulted in unique interpretations that reveal detailed characteristics and previously unheard possibilities of these musical masterpieces. The members as of 2012 include Ofer Falk, violin, and Vanessa Lucas-Smith, cello, in addition to Todes and Vogel.
