Fry Street Quartet
Our dear colleague, Bradley Ottesen, is taking a brief hiatus from the studio and stage this summer, following a serious hiking accident over Memorial Day weekend. The injuries he sustained are significant and will require time and physical therapy to heal.
Thankfully, Brad is expected to make a full recovery. True to form, he has approached rehabilitation with his trademark thoroughness, steady determination, and good humor, and is already making excellent progress. We miss him, but look forward to welcoming him back to teaching and performing this fall.
Please join us in wishing Brad a smooth and speedy recovery!
-Anne, Rebecca, & Robert of the Fry Street Quartet
