> "From the ensemble's name, you'd never know they're a  classical  
> string quartet. It's all part of the boundary-defying venture of   
> these four innovative young players, who in addition to maintaining  
> a claim  on the mainstream classical repertoire have worked  
> together on  cross-cultural, cross-genre projects such as Yo-Yo  
> Ma's Silk Road Ensemble.  They're hip in a geeky Brooklyn way  
> (suspenders, facial hair). They're  passionate and knowledgeable  
> about art: their ensemble's name makes reference  to the Blue Rider  
> group in expressionist painting nearly a century ago. They  do  
> shows in clubs, galleries, and the occasional Buddhist temple.  
> Everyone  but the cellist plays standing up, and when the music  
> calls for it, they dig  into their instruments with the exuberance  
> of racehorses let out of the barn.  On March 11th, you will be  
> treated to a program that showcases their  versatility and  
> incredible musicianship.
