Nakshatra Quartet: Carnatic-Inspired Chamber Ensemble

"...intricate, cinematic, constantly shifting series of themes anchored in thousands of years of Indian classical music" (New York Music Daily), the Nakshatra Quartet: Carnatic-Inspired Chamber Ensemble reimagines the potential of string Chamber Music for our global times. The group explores beauty found at the intersection of their musical paths, where original compositions weave together threads of South Indian classical, Western chamber music, jazz and creative improvisation. Varying colors, shapes and sounds emerge from the ensemble with their esteemed collaborators. This evening, they are joined by cellist Jake Charkey and percussionist Dan Kurfirst.
