BIO:

Four great artists with a passion for chamber music have formed an exciting new quartet that is bound to become an audience favorite. Each of them is known for wonderfully expressive playing, so it seemed that ESPRESSIVO! was the perfect name for this new quartet of piano and strings.

For decades, violinist Jaime Laredo and cellist Sharon Robinson, together with their piano trio partner the late Joseph Kalichstein, were considered "chamber music royalty" (Washington Post), a term that applies equally to their ESPRESSIVO! partners - the stellar violist Milena Pájaro-van de Stadt (formerly of the Dover Quartet) and award-winning pianist Anna Polonsky, one of chamber music's most sought-after partners.
