About this user

The Emerson String Quartet stands alone in the history of string quartets with an unparalleled list of achievements over three decades: over thirty acclaimed recordings produced with Deutsche Grammophon since 1987, nine 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 cycles of the complete Beethoven, Bartók, Mendelssohn and Shostakovich string quartets in the world's musical capitals, from New York to London and Vienna. The Quartet has collaborated in concerts and on recordings with some of the greatest artists of our time. After more than 32 years of extensive touring and recording, the Emerson Quartet continues to perform with the same benchmark integrity, energy and commitment that it has demonstrated since it was formed in 1976.

The 2009-2010 season comprises more than ninety engagements worldwide, with a three-concert series at Queen Elizabeth Hall in London's Southbank Centre, two concerts at Wigmore Hall, and performances in Prague and at the Edinburgh International Festival. European tours feature multiple stops in Spain, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Austria and France. North American engagements are highlighted by a three-concert series entitled Adventures in Bohemia in the recently-renovated Alice Tully Hall at New York's Lincoln Center. A correlated 3-CD set for Deutsche Grammophon of Dvorák's late quartets, Cypresses and the viola quintet will be released in 2010. Additional concerts include Philadelphia, New Orleans, San Diego, Boston, Pittsburgh, Seattle, Houston, Salt Lake City, Calgary, Toronto and Vancouver, among others. In 2010, the Emerson embarks on a rare tour of Asia, visiting Seoul, Tokyo, Hong Kong and Taipei. The Quartet continues its residency at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, DC, now in its 30th sold-out season.
