    Overview

    Individuality and imagination rank high on the list of the Orion String Quartet’s attributes.

    The ensemble’s artistry has matured over more than a quarter century, during which time it has introduced audiences to many new works and developed searching interpretations of such landmark chamber music compositions as Schubert’s ‘Death and the Maiden’ and Haydn’s incomparable late string quartets.
