Details:
The Low End String Quartet is a re-imagining of the classical string quartet. The instrumentation differs, adding a bass, dropping a violin, and swapping an electric guitar where the viola should be. All instruments are amplified. This "new and improved" string quartet lineup is much better suited to alternative venues than the classical model, and is better equipped for rumbling your ribcage.
This is not your average chamber music ensemble. The Low End String Quartet''s style lies squarely at the intersection of the post-classical, avant-jazz, and post-rock worlds. Their music reflects the influence of modern luminaries such as Steve Reich, Phillip Glass, and Terry Riley, as well as the ecstatic music of Anthony Braxton, Albert Ayler, John Coltrane, and Rhys Chatham. The group''s members have played in rock bands, jazz groups, classical and new music ensembles. This wide range of experience allows them to draw on the best practices of each: the visceral excitement of rock, the spontaneous creativity of jazz, and the rigor of the post-classical tradition.
