ALOS QUARTET

     “For two long decades, Alos Quartet has deservedly earned a unique musical style that encompasses both the Viennese salon and the village square, classical and popular music, always remaining attentive to what is happening on both sides of the palazzo door and striving to connect these two worlds. They transport us with astonishing ease to Nordic landscapes and solemn dances, stirring emotions and evoking in their audience an effervescent euphoria that invites us to awaken.”

     Alos Quartet was founded in 1999. It is comprised of musicians with extensive artistic experience in both classical and modern music. Their repertoire, under the creative direction of Xabier Zeberio, covers diverse areas within contemporary music, offering a fresh perspective based on the classic string quartet formation. In its more than 25 years of history, the Alos Quartet has accumulated 5 albums and numerous performances, having given concerts in countries such as Spain, France, Germany, Portugal, Colombia, and Cuba. They have worked with artists of the caliber of Dulce Pontes, Kepa Junkera, Oskorri, Izaro, Carlos Nuñez, Silvio Rodriguez, Eñaut Elorrieta, Hertzainak, Oreka TX, Ken Zazpi, Los Piratas, Bide Ertzean, Angel Unzu, and many more. In addition, they have recorded a long list of film soundtracks, including “Irati,” “Cinco Lobitos,” “Dantza,” “Sobre Todo de Noche,” “Marco,” “Maspalomas,” “Gaua,” and “Akelarre,” winner of the Goya Award for Best Original Score, composed by Aran Calleja and Maite Arroitajauregi.
