“They are four classical musicians performing with the energy of young rock stars jamming on their guitars, a Beethoven-goes-indie foray into making classical music accessible but also celebrating why it was good in the first place.” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
Hailed as “the future of chamber music” (Strings), Brooklyn Rider offers eclectic repertoire in gripping performances that continue to attract legions of fans and draw rave reviews from classical, world, and rock critics alike. The 2013-14 season saw Brooklyn Rider collaborate with banjo legend Béla Fleck on the Deutsche Grammophon/Mercury Classics album The Impostor and on a 20-city North American tour. Other season highlights included collaborations with soprano Dawn Upshaw at residencies at the University of Texas at Austin and the University North Carolina at Chapel Hill In March and the eighth season of the Stillwater Music Festival, a weeklong chamber festival in Minnesota founded by the group in 2006 as a place to unveil new repertoire and collaborations.
The quartet has been increasingly active in the recording studio, including 2013’s A Walking Fire on Mercury Classics and the much-praised Brooklyn Rider Plays Philip Glass on the composer’s Orange Mountain Music label. Violinist Johnny Gandelsman launched In A Circle Records in 2008 with the release of Brooklyn Rider’s eclectic debut recording, Passport, followed by Dominant Curve in 2010, and Seven Steps in 2012. A long-standing relationship between Brooklyn Rider and Kayhan Kalhor resulted in the critically acclaimed 2008 recording, Silent City.
