The Ariel Quartet performs Beethoven and Mendelssohn quartets as well as music by Israeli composers Matan Borat and Paul Ben Ham. Described by the American Record Guide as “a consummate ensemble gifted with utter musicality and remarkable interpretive power,” the Ariel Quartet has earned a glowing international reputation. KI is thrilled to host the Ariels in a program featuring two works by Israeli composers as well as Beethoven and Mendelssohn. Matan Porat’s “Four Ladino Songs,” in particular, was specially commissioned for the quartet and premiered by them in 2020.
The Ariel Quartet has garnered critical praise worldwide for more than 20 years. Formed when the members were teenage students at the Jerusalem Academy Middle School of Music and Dance in Israel, the quartet is the recipient of the prestigious Cleveland Quartet Award. Recent highlights include the Ariels’ sold-out Carnegie Hall debut, performances at Lincoln Center and the release of a Brahms and Bartók album for Avie Records.
