“The Argus Quartet is finding fresh, thrillingly expressive possibilities and adding bold new colors to a canvas that has their clear signature on it.” – David Harrington, Kronos Quartet
One of the hottest quartets on the scene today, the Argus Quartet rose to international prominence after winning the 2017 Concert Artists Guild Victor Elmaleh Competition and the M-Prize. From a residency at Juilliard to collaborations with the Kronos Quartet, Juilliard String Quartet, and JACK Quartet, the Argus Quartet is at the forefront of a generation of chamber ensembles that bring the same fresh curiosity to traditional repertoire as they do works by living composers. This program juxtaposes selections from J.S. Bach’s The Art of Fugue with Garth Knox’s Satellites and works by contemporary master Christopher Theofanidis and others.
