Ehnes Quartet Residency - The UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music

Ehnes Quartet

in Residence, 2026-28

The Ehnes Quartet, embarking on an exciting three-year partnership with The UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music as the school’s visiting string quartet in residence, launches its eagerly anticipated Beethoven Quartet Cycle—a comprehensive six-concert chronological exploration of Beethoven’s complete string quartets.

“That name is a bit misleading… quartetmates Amy Schwartz Moretti (violin), Che-Yen Chen (viola), and Edward Arron (cello) are all stars in their own right… a treat not to be missed.”
– Toronto Guardian
