Turtle Island String
Quartet
“It must have been like this when
Beethoven was taking Vienna by
storm – the exhilaration of
seeing the future of classical music
unfold before your eyes and
ears.” – St. Louis
Post-Dispatch Its name
derived from creation mythology found in Native American
Folklore, the Turtle
Island Quartet, since
its inception in 1985, has been a singular force in the
creation of bold, new trends in chamber music for strings.
Winner of the 2006 and most recently, the 2008 Grammy
Award for Best Classical Crossover Album,
Turtle
Island fuses the
classical quartet esthetic with contemporary American musical
styles, and by devising a performance practice that honors
both, the state of the art has inevitably been redefined.
Cellist nonpareil Yo-Yo Ma has
proclaimed TIQ to be “a unified voice that truly
breaks new ground – authentic and passionate –
a reflection of some of the most
creative music-making today.”
