Our Educational Philosophy
The Dolphins Quartet sees teaching as a collaborative process, where we learn from our students just as much as they learn from us. We love working with learners of all ages and backgrounds. In 2025, we launched our own program to workshop and premiere new works by 11 student composers, all of high school age or younger. We’ve taught young adults through the Ghetto Classics program in Nairobi, Kenya; worked with adult students in jails and prisons; and performed for countless elementary schools across New York City and New Mexico. Each of these experiences leaves us inspired and full of hope—and we would love to do more!
