The members Maria-Paula Majoor (1st Violin), Daniel Torrico Menacho (2nd Violin), Karsten Kleijer (Viola) and Arno van der Vuurst (Violoncello) studied at the Dutch String Quartet Academy. They made a name for themselves with projects across stylistic lines: the played with the rock singer Frédérique Spigt and recorded a CD with Hermann van Veen. When it comes to serious music, the quartet is equally at home: it puts on a concert series in Amsterdam, has three CDs already and is regularly a guest at many well known European music festivals.
