“Every year, a string quartet comes to the Bay Area and wows me. In 2024, that group was the Quatuor Ébène” (San Francisco Classical Voice). Energy and exhilaration are words that are often used to describe their performances, with critics like Bachtrack’s proclaiming it “hard to imagine string quartet playing at once more diverse and more brilliant than this…the possibilities of a string quartet were shown to be boundless.”
