ETHEL String Quartet https://ethelcentral.org/

Established in New York City in 1998, the string quartet ETHEL sets the contemporary concert standard: "indefatigable and eclectic" (The New York Times), "vital and brilliant" (The New Yorker). Composer performers Ralph Farris (viola), Kip Jones (violin), Dorothy Lawson (cello), and Corin Lee (violin) fuse uptown panache with downtown genre mashup. ETHEL has performed across the United States and worldwide; released 10 feature albums; guested on 50+ recordings; won a Grammy with jazz legend Kurt Elling; and toured with Todd Rundgren and Joe Jackson. ETHEL champions the art and music of today, forging human connections across sound and style.
