Described as a "quartet with a difference" by The Irish Times, Dublin Guitar Quartet (DGQ) is the world’s first classical guitar quartet dedicated to 20th- and 21st-century music. Formed at the Dublin Conservatory of Music and Drama, DGQ has become a genre-defying ensemble, expanding the guitar repertoire through new commissions and dynamic arrangements. The Quartet brings the works of Philip Glass, Steve Reich, Arvo Pärt, and other modern masters to life with precision and passion, exploring minimalist soundscapes and rhythm experimentation on classical guitar. Pushing the boundaries of guitar music, Dublin Guitar challenges classical conventions and captivates audiences around the globe.
