Hailed for their “spellbinding virtuosity” (BBC Music Magazine) and “brilliant authenticity” (Sequenza 21), the Formosa Quartet has sustained a career of innovation, storytelling, and advocacy since winning the 1st Prize and Amadeus Prize at the Wigmore Hall International String Quartet Competition. Whether at the Smithsonian, the Berliner Philharmonie, or in schools across the country — whether in their uncompromisingly exploratory approach to the standard literature; their specially curated sets of folk, pop, and jazz arrangements; or their socioculturally probing American Mirror Project — FQ is committed to an insatiable search for the fresh and new in string quartet expression.
