Armadillo String Quartet

Barry Socher & Steve Scharf, violins
Raymond Tischer, viola
Armen Ksajikian, cello

Since its founding in 1980, the Armadillo String Quartet has established itself as one of Los Angeles’s premier and more versatile chamber music groups. The Armadillos have appeared in established Southern California chamber music series and festivals such as the Monday Evening Concerts, South Bay Chamber Music Society, Chamber Music in Historic Sites, Sundays at Four, Pacific Composers’ Forum, and Santa Barbara Fall Music Festival. They also dedicate themselves to expanding the boundaries that define chamber music: local museum and gallery aficionados, visitors to Frank Lloyd Wright’s Hollyhock House, and even whitewater rafters along the Colorado and other Western wild rivers have all enjoyed their performances. Haydn fans have been presented a nearly thirty-five-hour marathon concert of the complete string quartets. Since 1991, the composer Peter Schickele has joined the quartet, as performer and commentator, for annual concerts of his works. In December 1999, the Armadillos appeared at Carnegie Hall, performing the world premiere of a P. D. Q. Bach quartet.
