*Acknowledgement: This record has been corrected to reflect Hot Note as the winner of Region 10’s 2024 Most Improved Quartet Award after a review of criteria and scores. In March 2024, the award was presented to New Edition Quartet in error, at no fault of the competitors. A presentation amending this error was given at our Winter Workshop in January 2025.
