With a mission to perform music “between the genres,” the Rastrelli Cello Quartet has been thrilling audiences with their renderings of non-traditional programming since 2002. “Unique is not only the cast of this quartet but their extreme ability, their unity and capability to fascinate the public.” Neue Zuricher Zeitung (Switzerland)
The Rastrelli Cello Quartet’s widely varied program will mix comfortably works by Bach, Saint-Saens, and Tchaikovsky with those of George Gershwin, Dave Brubeck, and Leroy Anderson.
