Performing over 200 times per year, the Quartet holds contracts with major New York entertainment agencies, and is in great demand for public and private events of every kind. Recent notable appearances include: The Grand Opening of the Faberge Collection, The Metropolitan, New York The 100 Anniversary of the N.Y.

Sheraton, and the renaissance Hotel. The Harvard Club and the Metropolitan Club The Wedgwood Room at The Pierre The Pinnacle Suite at Windows on the World The Rainbow Room at Rockefeller Center The Temple of Dendur at the Metropolitan Museum of Art The Jewish Museum of New York Much of the success of the Empyreal String Quartet can be attributed to Rigorous training and uncompromising professionalism. Its members are graduates of distinguished Russian conservatives, and enjoyed active performing careers in orchestras and chamber groups before deciding to form their own ensemble in 1993. Another factor that sets the Quartet apart is its range and versatility. It is constantly expanding and refining its repertoire, and its original adaptations and arrangements of, for example, movie themes, has set a standard for the entire industry. And the Quartet brings the same care and attention to Classical, Romantic and baroque Classics; Opera Favorites; Jazz and Ragtime Classics; Beloved Waltzes and Tangos; and Traditional Melodies from the Italian, Russian, French, American and Jewish Traditions Whatever the occasion--Public or Private, Joyous or Serious, Lavish or Modest-- the Empyreal String Quartet is ready to make it even more memorable.
