Strathcona String Quartet
BIOGRAPHY
Each member of the Strathcona String Quartet (SSQ), Edmonton’s premiere professional chamber ensemble, is a unique performing artist in their own right. Like most string quartets, the SSQ plays classical and romantic repertoire; like some string quartets, it premieres many contemporary works; unlike any other string quartet, it plays George Andrix’s original compositions, both jazz and classical. The quartet is fortunate to have Andrix as a member, who, in addition to being a violinist and violist, is an Associate Composer of the Canadian Music Centre. The quartet has premiered and recorded many of his works in the last two decades.
