Praised as “breathtaking” and “paradigm-shifting” (New York Music Daily), The Overlook is a New York-based string quartet known for curating vibrant, unexpected programs that transform unfamiliar music into unforgettable experiences. Featuring violinists Monica Davis and Yezu Woo, violist Angela Pickett, and cellist Laura Metcalf, the ensemble highlights the work of living composers and consistently champions new works.
Their recent collaborations include performances with NY Philharmonic clarinetist Anthony McGill, immersive concerts at MassMOCA with artist Linda Sormin, and a special project with jazz legend Joe Lovano. Formed during the pandemic to share music and build community, The Overlook engages audiences with its commitment to making chamber music relevant and inspiring.
