Ciompi Quartet

Their music, full of passion, yet with pure and beautiful tone color, intoxicated the listener.

The whole evening was a work of art, of technical brilliance, of careful, sensitive ensemble playing.

From beginning to end the playing sounded intelligent and sure, softened at the edges with a full and mellow tone.

Once the players entered the score’s sonic world, no distractions could interrupt the probing artistry. Here was music-making of remarkable poise and control.
