Aruna Quartet

Evoking bagpipes, fiddles, deep sea creatures and everything in between, the Aruna Quartet performs programs of new music and original arrangements. “Aruna” translates literally to “red, ruddy, tawny”– a succinct descriptor of the dust storms and sprawling, flatland sunsets that visually define West Texas where the quartet formed.The Aruna Quartet was awarded the Grand Prize at the 46th Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition, among other national and international prizes. The quartet works with composers to tell new stories, push against genre boundaries and present a charcuterie of sounds in their concerts.
