Formed in 2016 at the Cleveland Institute of Music, the Callisto Quartet has performed extensively and toured venues around the world such as the Kennedy Center[4], Carnegie Hall, Merkin Hall, and Queen Elisabeth Music Chapel. Early in their career, they garnered top prizes at the Banff[5], Fischoff[6], Bordeaux[7], Melbourne[8], and Wigmore Hall[9] competitions, and appeared at festivals such as Ravinia, LaJolla, Norfolk[10], and Prussia Cove. They have performed alongside many of classical music's esteemed musicians, including Misha Amory, Ettore Causa, Franklin Cohen, Desmond Hoebig, Nina Lee, Tai Murray, Lawrence Power, Miguel da Silva, David Shifrin, and Paul Watkins.
The quartet has previously held residencies at the Yale School of Music, Rice University, Cleveland Institute of Music, Queen Elisabeth Music Chapel, and Escuela Superior de Musica Reina Sofia, Stauffer Center, and the Caramoor Center for Music and the Arts[11]. During their time at Caramoor, they were the first quartet in residence to perform a complete cycle of Bartok quartets[12].
The quartet takes its name from Jupiter's most stable and hospitable moon[13]
