Founded by the internationally acclaimed Sphinx Organization\, the ensemble is driven by a belief in the unifying power of music and a passion for collaboration\, innovation and inclusion. \nTheir dynamic program features works by some of today’s most compelling living composers — including Jessie Montgomery\, Kevin Puts and Caroline Shaw\, among others — culminating in a rare performance of CQminute\, a powerful collection of commissioned miniatures celebrating the quartet’s first ten years together.
