Brooklyn Rider

Brooklyn Rider came together for Yo-Yo Ma’s Silk Road Project, so its interests lie well beyond the borough. Using the string quartet as a vehicle for borderless communication, Brooklyn Rider is recreating the 300-year-old form as a vital twenty-first-century ensemble. Showcasing everything from haunting Armenian laments, to classical arrangements of Mexican art-rock music, to driving Gypsy-inflected improvisations, there’s something for everyone here.
