The UI String Quartet Residency Program continues a long tradition of fostering the highest level of string quartet playing and chamber music instruction at the University of Iowa. 

Each year, this exciting program brings nationally recognized string quartets to the University of Iowa School of Music for extended residences. This model is the first of its kind and continues to generate a buzz on the national chamber music scene.
