The Mivos Quartet is devoted to performing works of contemporary composers and presenting new music to diverse audiences. Since the quartet’s beginnings in 2008 they have performed and closely collaborated with an ever-expanding group of international composers representing multiple aesthetics of contemporary classical composition. They have appeared on prestigious series such as the New York Phil Biennial, the Darmstadt Internationalen Ferienkurse für Neue Musik (Germany), Shanghai New Music Week (Shanghai, China), and Lo Spririto della musica di Venezia (La Fenice Theater, Italy). Mivos is also committed to working with guest artists, exploring multi-media projects involving live video and performing improvised music.
