Encounter: Fellowship Artist Spotlight with violist Matthew Lipman

Praised by the New York Times for his “rich tone and elegant phrasing,” violist Matthew Lipman has become one of the most sought-after instrumentalists of his generation, frequently appearing as both a soloist and chamber musician.

He joins the Abeo Quartet to perform Dvořák’s String Quintet in E-flat Major, Op. 97 “The American” for our first Fellowship Artist Spotlight performance along with duets from members of the Cohda Quartet.


Encounters are free afternoon events, featuring intriguing lectures, discussions, performances, and diverse perspectives. Encounters reveal fascinating insights into the ways in which music is created, influenced, interpreted, and performed. Registration required.
