The fluent string playing of the Corcoras quartet features original improvisation and inventive arrangements that subtly flow from classical to jazzy atmospheres. Rhythmic patterns are used with great imagination, brilliantly substituting for percussion.

The experience and musical skills of these four musicians blend beautifully into a sound that is a feast for the ears. The Corcoras String Quartet offers opportunities to improvise within each piece, demanding masterful coordination and an exceptionally high degree of musicianship. Brilliantly communicative playing serving up a boldly imaginative vision of chamber music and jazz improvisation!
