"We’re living in a golden age of string quartets ... it’s hard to disagree when you hear the vibrant young players in New York’s Attacca Quartet."
- NPR
"They may be a relatively young ensemble, but already they come very close to epitomizing the string quartet ideal ... mastery like this is scarce enough in quartets that have played together for decades."
- The Washington Post
The international award-winning Attacca Quartet collaborates with emerging composer Michael Ippolito on the world premiere recording of his chamber music Songlines. Built around two large works, the dark and intense String Quartet No. 2 and the lyrical and compact String Quartet No. 3, Songlines also includes shorter pieces for strings, ranging from bright and buoyant and propulsively energetic to simple, folk-inspired and gently hypnotic.
