Formed in Israel almost three decades ago and now based in the United States, the Ariel Quartet has built a reputation for tackling challenging repertoire with bold interpretations and deep musical insight. This suitably ambitious new project, timed to coincide with the quartet’s 30th anniversary in 2028, highlights their dedication to Beethoven’s transformative works, tracing his journey from the classical brilliance of the early quartets to the spiritual profundity of his later ones. Volume one of the cycle will be followed by two further volumes, and finally the release of a box set to celebrate the quartet’s three decades of performance.
