Borodin Quartet , chamber ensemble

 

Ruben Aharonian, violin
Andrei Abramenkov, violin
Igor Naidin, viola
Vladimir Balshin, cello

 

'...this quartet has remained faithful to a few distinct aesthetic ideals. One is that the music must always appear in three dimensions, and that nobody's ego shall be allowed to get in the way. I know of no other quartet in which the players efface themselves as selflessly as in the Borodin, as if each player were actively engaged in playing all the parts, not just the one under his fingers.'
