ABOUT THE AIZURI QUARTET
Through its engaging and thought-provoking programs, branded by The New York Times as "genuinely exciting" and "imaginative," the Aizuri Quartet has garnered critical acclaim for bringing "a technical bravado and emotional power" to bold new commissions, and for its "flawless" (San Diego Union-Tribune) performances of the great masterpieces of the past. In the 2019-20 season the group will tour extensively across North America giving both debut appearances at Lincoln Center and at Carnegie Hall as part of CAG Winner's Series.
Based in New York City, the Aizuri Quartet was the 2017-2018 MetLiveArts String Quartet-in-Residence at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, where they presented five unique programs throughout the season, leading The New York Times to applaud them as "a quartet of expert collaborators, who cogently traverse a range of repertoire staples and modern works."
Formed in 2012 and combining four distinctive musical personalities into a unique collective, the Aizuri Quartet draws its name from "aizuri-e," a style of predominantly blue Japanese woodblock printing that is noted for its vibrancy and incredible detail.
