The Arianna Quartet has concertized throughout the United States, Mexico, Japan, Canada and France, including critically acclaimed performances at Orchestra Hall in Chicago and Tokyo’s Suntory Hall. They have collaborated with artists such as Gilbert Kalish, Bernard Greenhouse, Richard Stoltzman, and members of the Vermeer Quartet, Tokyo Quartet, and Cleveland Quartet. The Arianna Quartet has recorded for the Centaur, Albany, and Urtext classical labels. Hailed for their outstanding musicianship, the Arianna String Quartet has firmly established itself as one of America’s finest chamber ensembles. Formed in 1992, they garnered national attention by winning the Grand Prize in the 1994 Fischoff Chamber Music Competition, and First Prize in both the Coleman and Carmel Chamber Music Competitions. They were also Laureates in the 1999 Bordeaux International String Quartet Competition. "Quartet playing doesn´t get much better than this" "The Arianna Quartet makes music with the tonal warmth, fastidious balance and heightened communication skills of groups many years its senior. In Schubert´s Quartettsatz, and especially a shimmering and stylish reading of the Ravel Quartet, the silken refinement of the playing was achieved with no loss of expressive vitality or spontaneity. Quartet playing doesn´t get much better than this" -Chicago Tribune
