*Las Vegas Debut

The Canone String Quartet- Thomas Mathias and Kelsea Au (violins), Ross McIntosh (viola), and Manuel Papale (cello), was formed at the Jacobs School of Music at Indiana University. Comprising members from the US, Argentina, and the UK, they have individually appeared on stages across North America, Europe, and Asia. This ensemble has worked closely with the Pacifica Quartet, Horszowski Trio, and Atar Arad, former violist of the Cleveland Quartet. The Canone Quartet is an exciting group of rising artists, eager to perform a diverse range of
repertoire for audiences across the world. Most recently, they were featured as Emerging Artists in the 25th anniversary of the Mimir Chamber Music Festival in Fort Worth, Texas.

The Canone Quartet has recently been named the Jacobs School of Music’s String-Quartet-in- Residence and recipient of the Kuttner Quartet Fellowship for the 2022-2023 season.
