ZONAR - Album Release Tour

The North Sea String Quartet is THE Dutch jazz string quartet of the moment. The improvising string players shed a new light on the age-old string quartet with their outspoken improvisations, innovative playing styles, and idiosyncratic compositions, inspired by modern jazz, world music, contemporary classical, and electronic music.

The quartet has been internationally active for years, particularly in collaborations with artists such as Ambrose Akinmusire (US), Trio da Kali (ML), Roland Satterwhite (US), Lilian Vieira (BR), Javier Infante (ES), and Samora Pinderhughes (US).

The urge to innovate the string quartet format resulted in an exploration of unusual sounds. On their latest album, the North Sea String Quartet showcases what they have discovered; expect a fresh approach to string playing, drawing from elements of electronic music while remaining as acoustic as possible.
