| The Quint Quintet, a diverse composite of virtuosic players, was recently organized by Quint to explore and promote the works of Astor Piazzolla and Argentine tango. Twice nominated for a Grammy, the charismatic violinist already pursues an extensive solo concert career and is artistic director of the Mineria Chamber Music Festival in Mexico City. Philippe has emerged as one of a few young soloists to combine a remarkable degree of lyricism, poetry and impeccable virtuosity. A recent critique by The Chicago Tribune proclaimed: "What a terrific soloist the young Russian born American violinist Philippe Quint makes! Here is a fiddle virtuoso whose many awards are fully justified by the brilliance of his playing". "A Legend in the Making," was another critic's prediction, while "flawless," "dazzling," "extraordinary", and "astonishing" are only a few additional adjectives awarded him by the press. |
