Orion Quartet

The Orion Quartet is one of the leading chamber music ensembles on the classical music scene today. Admired for diverse programming that juxtaposes masterworks of quartet literature with key works of the 20th and 21st centuries, the Orion provides singularly rich dimension to its music-making. The members of the Orion String Quartet -- violinists Daniel Phillips and Todd Phillips, brothers who share the first violin chair equally, violist Steven Tenenbom, and cellist Timothy Eddy -- have worked closely with illustrious musicians, such as Pablo Casals, Sir Andras Schiff, Rudolf Serkin, members of the ensemble TASHI, and the Beaux Arts Trio, as well as the Budapest, Galimir, and Guarneri String Quartets. The Orion String Quartet are Artist Members of the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center.

In the upcoming 2022-2023 season, the Quartet performs Beethoven String Quartet No. 16 in a winter concert for Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, and appears again with both the Phoenix Chamber Music Society and Philadelphia Chamber Music Society.
