The Mivos Quartet-- who are both musicians and educators-- have been reviewed as “one of America’s most daring and ferocious new-music ensembles” (The Chicago Reader), and are devoted to performing the works of contemporary composers, presenting new music to diverse audiences. The quartet has been lauded for their “performances of edge-of-your-seat intensity” and “thrillingly committed accounts” (The Strad Magazine) and has earned a reputation as a leading interpreter of contemporary music. Mivos is invested in commissioning and premiering new music for string quartet, particularly in a context of close collaboration with composers over extended time-periods.
