The Ariel String Quartet graduated in 2010 from the Professional String Quartet Training Program at the New England Conservatory. They performed the Schubert Cello Quintet with their mentor Paul Katz for their final recital. Though only in their twenties, the Quartet recently celebrated its tenth anniversary. Formed in Israel, the Quartet moved to the United States in 2004 to continue its professional studies, and has since rapidly gained the attention of the music world. The group follows the relatively rare practice of having the two violinists switch parts periodically. Grand Prize winners of the 2006 Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition, they have also been awarded First Prize at the international competition “Franz Schubert And The Music Of Modernity” in Graz, Austria (2003). After winning the Székely Prize for their performance of Bartók, as well as the overall Third Prize at the Banff International String Quartet Competition in 2007, the American Record Guide described the Ariel Quartet as “a consummate ensemble gifted with utter musicality and remarkable interpretive power” and called their performance of Beethoven’s Quartet Op. 132 “the pinnacle of the competition.” The Ariel Quartet has performed extensively in Israel, Europe, and North America, including such venues as the Louvre in Paris, Kaisersaal in Frankfurt (“…a tour de force,” said Frankfurter Allgemeine), Jordan Hall in Boston, and the Washington Performing Arts Society, the Corcoran Gallery, and the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. In the 2010-2011 season the Quartet will participate in a Beethoven cycle at the National Gallery, and will serve as the string quartet accompaniment to the competitors at the 13th Arthur Rubinstein International Piano Master Competition in May 2011. In addition to performing the traditional quartet repertoire, the Ariel Quartet regularly collaborates with many Israeli and non-Israeli musicians and composers, including pianists Roman Rabinovich, Alexander Gavrylyuk, Stefano Miceli and Yaron Kohlberg; the Jerusalem String Quartet; composers Matan Porat, Matti Kovler, and Menachem Wiesenberg; clarinetist Moran Katz; violist Roger Tapping; and the Zukerman Chamber Players. The Ariel Quartet has also been quartet-in-residence at the Yellow Barn Music Festival for the past two years. In early 2012, the quartet was named string-quartet-in-residence at the University of Cincinnati's College-Conservatory of Music.[1] References1. ^[https://www.uc.edu/news/NR.aspx?id=14923|Ariel Quartet Named Official String-Quartet-In-Residence of the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120926125004/https://www.uc.edu/news/NR.aspx?id=14923 |date=September 26, 2012 }} External links
