Since its inception, the all-American quartet has been awarded prizes at nearly every major competition in the United States and performed across the globe with showings worthy of a major-league quartet (Scott Cantrell, Dallas Morning News). Luke Quinton of the Austin-American Statesman writes, The Aeolus Quartet is a powerful and thoughtful group of young musicians who are plotting an ascending coursethis vibrant group shows great promise. They were the 2013-2015 Graduate Resident String Quartet at the Juilliard School, and they currently make their home in New York City. The Quartet is named for the Greek god Aeolus, who governed the four winds. This idea of a single spirit uniting four individual forces serves as an inspiration to the members of the Aeolus Quartet as they pursue their art. In 2010 Zahari Metchkov joined Colorado State University-Pueblos department of music and is currently an Associate Professor of Music. Dr. Metchkov is the Artistic Director of the Pueblo Keyboard Arts Festival and Piano Conversations Concert Series, Pueblo, as well as Rocky Mountain Music Alliance Concert Series, Colorado Springs.
