Since 2002 they have been studying on the Paris-based ProQuartet (European Centre for Chamber Music) Professional Training Program, where they have worked with Walter Levin of the LaSalle Quartet, and with members of the Alban Berg, Artemis and Hagen Quartets. They have recently embarked on an intensive period of study under Rainer Schmidt of the Hagen Quartet. Earlier this year the Doric Quartet was selected for representation by Young Concert Artists Trust (YCAT <http://www.ycat.co.uk/> ). In 2001 the Doric Quartet made their Purcell Room debut in a Park Lane Group concert. They have since gone on to give several concerts under the auspices of the PLG, including three performances of Haydns Seven Last Words at the Purcell Room and four evening recitals at Wigmore Hall. In 2004 they were invited to perform Mozarts Clarinet Quintet with Michael Collins at Wigmore Halls Christmas Concert. Abroad the Quartet has given recitals in Austria, France, Italy and Germany, appearing at Chateau de Fontainebleau near Paris, the Associazione Alessandro Scarlatti series in Naples, and at the ORF (Austrian Radio) Funkhaus in Vienna. In 2000 the Doric Quartet won the inaugural Bristol Millennium Chamber Music Competition, which led to a five year residency at the Wiltshire Music Centre in Bradford-on-Avon, where they are successfully developing a local audience for chamber music. They also work with young musicians throughout Wiltshire in a programme managed and funded in partnership with Wiltshire County Council. This summer the Quartet make their debut at the Edinburgh International Festival. They go on to appear at the Purcell Room (25 September) and give the world premiere of a work by Gordon Kerry for quartet and voice with Catherine Wyn-Rogers at Wigmore Hall (29 October) to where they will twice return for a Kirckman Concert Society recital (4 November) and for a Coffee Concert (27 May). The Quartet continue to give recitals at festivals and venues throughout the UK including concerts at Bridgewater Hall, Conway Hall, St. Georges Bristol and the Kings Lynn Festival. Abroad the Quartet give concerts in France and Italy. Alex Redington and Jonathan Stone completed their postgraduate studies at the Royal Academy of Music in 2005 where they studied with Howard Davis. Mark Braithwaite graduated from the Royal College of Music in 2005 and is now a student of Thomas Riebl. John Myerscough graduated from Selwyn College, Cambridge in 2003 and now studies with Louise Hopkins at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama.
