Named "America's greatest quartet" by Time Magazine, the Emerson String Quartet is unparalleled in talent and achievements over the years. The winner of eight Grammy Awards (including two for Best Classical Album, an unprecedented honor for a chamber music group), three Gramophone Awards, the coveted Avery Fisher Prize, and various other honors, the Emerson String Quartet is in class of its own. After more than 30 years of performing, these musicians retain the intensity and vigor held at their first performance in 1976. Says Gramophone, "The Emerson gives us playing of exceptional technical accomplishment and an unusually wide expressive range. They continually offer new insights into some endlessly enthralling music. Do hear them."
