THE ECLIPSE QUARTET is a new music ensemble dedicated to the music of the late twentieth century and present-day composers. This quartet is made up of four women with strong backgrounds in international and national chamber music performance, new music and recording. Their combined experience represents a wide range of musical styles and collaborations.
Eclipses repertoire contains works by such composers as Julia Wolfe, Terri Riley, John Zorn, Fred Frith, Philip Glass, Morton Subotnick, Roger Reynolds, and Loius Vierk. They have also premiered new works by Zeena Parkins, Carla Kihlstedt, Justin Haynes, and David Jaffe. The quartet often collaborates with film makers, visual artists and performance artists, exploring the interaction of the seen and the heard. In May 2006, the quartets recording of the string quartets of Zeena Parkins was released on the Tzadik label.
