The Salaff Quartet formed in 2014, and has since performed countless concerts and outreach events in the Rochester area. All four members attended the Cleveland Institute of Music, and have fondly named the quartet after their chamber music teacher, Peter Salaff. Formed when all four were members of the Rochester Philharmonic, this quartet provides an outlet for exploring the great string quartet repertoire with one another and sharing the results with listeners of all ages and degrees of musical interest.
