Asylum Quartet

Lauded for their "nonstop virtuoso skills" and "evocative, educational, and refreshing" concerts, the Asylum Quartet's repertoire spans traditional, contemporary and globally-minded works.

Asylum's recent highlights include a showcase performance at the 2015 Chamber Music America Conference in New York City, a six-day residency with the Arts Alliance of Northern New Hampshire, as well as a full season of concerts, workshops, and masterclasses with public schools in Connecticut as the 2014-2015 Musical Masterworks Resident Ensemble. Asylum received the Grand Prize in the 2014 International Chamber Music Ensemble Competition in Boston, Massachusetts, becoming the first saxophone quartet to receive this honor. The quartet has performed at the Boston Athaeneum, the Newport Music Festival, the Traverse City Film Festival, and the International Festival of Arts and Ideas.
