Juilliard String Quartet
With unparalleled artistry and enduring vigour, the Juilliard String Quartet continues to inspire audiences around the world. After 75 years the quartet has grown to an American legend and institution.
The Juilliard String Quartet became the first classical music ensemble to receive a lifetime achievement award from the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences in 2011.
Past seasons have taken the renowned ensemble to Hong Kong, Singapore, Shanghai, London, Oslo, Copenhagen, Athens, Vancouver, Toronto, New York, and, due to numerous re-invitations, across the United States. The quartet has performed new works by composers Lembit Beecher, Jesse Jones, and Richard Wernick.
Listen to the quartet in 23/24 in Amsterdam, Bonn, Düsseldorf and Berlin, among others, with two works by Jörg Widmann dedicated to the Juilliard String Quartet.

Reviews
CD Review Strings magazine | Miranda Wilson | July-August 2021
Certainly the ensemble’s famed rhythmic precision and keen feeling for instrumental balance remains firmly in place, as does its ability to “play hard” without any unpleasant roughness of tone, but Zhulla also brought to her solos, especially in the slow movement of the “American” Quartet, a welcome degree of passion and spontaneity too. It sounds like she’ll make a fine addition to the team. Classics Today | David Hurwitz | New York | November 19, 2018
