The members of the Quartet include alumni of Venezuela's social and music education movement El Sistema and graduates of the Cleveland Institute of Music, Indiana University Bloomington and the Simon Bolivar Conservatory in Caracas, Venezuela. The Lincoln Journal Star has called the Dali's music "stunningly played," and the Allentown Morning Call has praised their "big lush sound" and "authoritative ease."
