The Saint Helens String Quartet embraces a sense of musical adventure, exploring an often uncharted sonic territory in which contemporary classical music intersects with genres including jazz, pop, rock, folk and world music. Like the world-renowned Kronos Quartet, the Saint Helens String Quartet brings classical training to a dynamic, cutting-edge sensibility, creating music that extends the boundaries of the ear and defines a truly American sound.
Saint Helens String Quartet has been a Shunpike affiliated group since June 2007.
