| Description/Comments |
The second in the 2006-2007 Honolulu Chamber Music Series, the Ying Quartet features Timothy Ying on violin, Janet Ying on violin, Phillip Ying on viola, and David Ying on cello.
Now in its second decade, the Ying Quartet has developed an international reputation for its commitment to making artistic and creative expression an essential part of everyday life. Initiatives in this direction include a visiting residency at Symphony Space in New York City linking music with other art forms (including poetry, dance, and film), collaborations with the Turtle Island String Quartet which explore jazz, improvisation, and the classical string quartet tradition, and a project with Hyperscore, a computer program that enables non-musicians to compose music for the Quartet to perform. The Ying’s ongoing commissioning project, LifeMusic, designed to produce a distinctively American string quartet repertoire, thus far includes ten new works, and this season adds quartets by Pierre Jalbert and John Duffy. Current recording projects include LifeMusic on the Quartz Label, Tchaikovsky for Arabesque, and a Telarc recording with the Turtle Island String Quartet. The EMI C!
lassics recording of works by Osvaldo Golijov on which the Ying Quartet appears with the St. Lawrence Quartet was nominated for a 2003 Grammy Award. The Quartet is in residence at the Eastman School of Music of the University of Rochester, and since 2001 its members have been the Blodgett Artists in Residence at Harvard University.
