For over a decade, this dazzling ensemble has enchanted audiences and critics worldwide with their exotic blend of musical virtuosity, artistic passion and charismatic presence. Quartetto Gelato established themselves as dominant forces on the emerging “new classical” scene early in their career by winning the coveted title of NPR Performance Today’s Debut Artist of the Year in 1996.
“Quartetto Gelato’s performances have a warm, endearing vitality.”
The New York Times
“If there were ever a group of musicians that could make anyone feel at home with classical music, Quartetto Gelato is it.”
