Miro String Quartet with Tom Burritt, marimba
PUTS Credo
TORKE Mojave
GLASS String Quartet No. 5
Hailed by the New York Times as possessing “explosive vigor and technical finesse,” the dynamic Miro Quartet, one of America’s highest profile chamber groups enjoys its place at the top of the international chamber music scene. Now in its second decade, the quartet continues to captivate audiences and critics around the world with its startling intensity, fresh perspective, and mature approach.
Founded in 1995 at the Oberlin Conservatory, the Miro Quartet met with immediate
success winning first prize at the 50th annual Coleman Chamber Music Competition
in April 1996, and taking both the first and grand prizes at the Fischoff National
Chamber Music Competition two months later.
In addition to a mastery of the standard repertoire, the Quartet maintains a fierce
devotion to contemporary music. The Miro Quartet has commissioned and
performed music by such composers as Brent Michael Davids, Leonardo Balada,
Kevin Puts, Chan Ka Nin, Dominic Maican and David Schober, and Gunther Schuller.
