  "Four classical musicians performing with the energy of young rock stars...making classical music accessible but also celebrating why it was good in the first place" (Pittsburgh Post-Gazette). Brooklyn Rider has sculpted a singular space in the world of string quartets with a gripping performance style and unquenchable appetite for musical adventure.

Celebrating twenty years of shared musical exploration, Brooklyn Rider originated in a living room, four friends in search of an outlet for their curiosities. Inspired by the probing spirit of Germany's pre-WW1 artistic collective Der Blaue Reiter, they recognized parallels with their creative community in Brooklyn and began to build projects. In the two decades since, the quartet has carved a singular space in the world of string quartets through thoughtful programmatic framing, deep-rooted collaborations, and innovative commissioning projects. Inspired equally by the rich repertoire of the past and the limitless canvas of new creation, Brooklyn Rider seeks to create meaningful and memorable experiences for its audiences.
