Heralded for their "strikingly beautiful, luminescent" sound (The New York Times), the Audubon Quartet has won acclaim throughout the world for nearly 30 years. Founded in 1974, the ensemble quickly achieved international recognition by winning top prizes in competitions in France, Brazil, and England. The Quartet performs in the major concert halls throughout North and South America, Europe, the Middle East, and the Caribbean. In 1981, at the invitation of the Chinese Ministry of Culture, they were the first American quartet ever to perform a concert tour in the People's Republic of China. The ensemble is Quartet-in-Residence at Shenandoah Conservatory in Winchester, Virginia.

Parking is on-street on Massachusetts and Western Avenues and in the parking lot of Westmoreland Congregational UCC church.
