Borromeo String Quartet presented by the Chamber Music Society of St. Cloud

Each visionary performance of the award-winning Borromeo String Quartet strengthens and deepens its reputation as one of the most important ensembles of our time. Admired and sought after for both its fresh interpretations of the classical music canon and its championing of works by 20th and 21st century composers, the ensemble has been hailed for its edge-of-the- seat performances, by the Boston Globe, which called it simply the best. Recently celebrating its 25th anniversary, the Borromeo continues to be a pioneer in its use of technology, and has the trailblazing distinction of being the first string quartet to utilize laptop computers on the concert stage. Reading music this way helps push artistic boundaries, allowing the artists to perform solely from 4-part scores and composers manuscripts, a revealing and metamorphic experience which these dedicated musicians now teach to students around the world.
