  Since its debut in 1999, the Canadian Guitar Quartet has performed on three continents, going from one standing ovation to the next, and established a reputation as one of the finest guitar ensembles in the world. 

  The Canadian Guitar Quartet has released four critically acclaimed albums while touring extensively in Canada and abroad, appearing in recital and with orchestra. The ensemble's first concert at the 92nd Street Y in New York, part of its Art of the Guitar series, was especially well received, with Don Witter Jr. of New York Classical Guitar Society writing, “The Canadian Guitar Quartet made one of the greatest New York City debuts of any artistic ensemble in decades…STUNNING !!!”
