The Calidore String Quartet is an ensemble acclaimed for its expressive artistry and balance of technical brilliance with warmth. The Calidores close the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center's Summer Residency with SPAC with an inventive program of old-world favorites and American originals.

Rob Brown comes from a musical family. His mother played piano and taught in this area for nearly 30 years. One uncle is a composer and brass player, one aunt is a professional accompanist and recitalist. And his grandfather had a record collection to rival WMHT’s. He started at WMHT as an intern in 1996. His first job was to go through the stacks of vinyl to make sure they were filed properly. He’s now the Music Director and is thrilled to continue in the “family business” and share more of our very favorite classical music from 1-4 every weekday and 11-3 on Sundays.
