Sotto Voce Quartet
September 22,
2009
The highly
acclaimed, internationally recognized Sotto Voce Quartet is
America’s premiere professional quartet of its kind. The quartet
enthusiastically challenges preconceived notions about what
tubas can do by composing, arranging, and commissioning
virtuosic new works that highlight the diversity of their
ensemble.
Sotto Voce has three recordings on the Summit Records label:
Consequences,
Viva Voce: The Quartets of John Stevens,
and
Refractions: Old & New Music for Low Brass.
The ensemble maintains an active international touring schedule
throughout the United States, Canada, and Europe. In 2006, they
performed concerts in Germany, California, Alabama (with the
Mobile Symphony) and served as the quartet-in-residence at the
International Tuba/Euphonium Conference in Denver. They have
also been invited to give a concert and clinic at the Midwest
Band and Orchestra Clinic. Devoted to education, Sotto Voce
hosts a
tuba quartet symposium
where they work closely with four invited quartets from around
the world.
