Praised by The New York Times for its “rare gift for combining interpretive spontaneity and fierce musical commitment,” the St. Lawrence String Quartet celebrates the 70th birthday celebration of American composer John Adams. After hearing the Quartet in concert, Adams was inspired to write works specifically for the quartet. “If good relationships are built on trust, the bond between the St. Lawrence String Quartet and composer John Adams is a marriage made in chamber music heaven” (Washington Post).
