Synopsis

Album Description

Presenting an exciting new string quartet from Finland! For years, the musical world has enjoyed the exciting musical visions of a generation of Finnish conductors and pianists, and now comes a new sound to rock the musical world. META4 is comprised of four young Finnish musicians who have taken Europe by storm, winning First Prize in the International Shostakovich competition in Moscow and the 3rd International Joseph Haydn Competition in Vienna. Given their impressive start, what could be more appropriate for their debut CD than the music of Haydn? In addition to their critically acclaimed performances of the standard quartet literature, META4is renowned for their creative programming and collaborations with other artists, regularly crossing boundaries between classical, jazz, pop, and dance.
