Real Quiet is a three-man band dedicated to an exclusive repertoire of hard-edge acoustic and electric music created by today’s leading composers. The three members are each highly accomplished soloists and chamber musicians whose careers have been dedicated to the advancement of contemporary music. Since their debut in 2004, Real Quiet has appeared in the U.S., Europe and Asia with premières of works by numerous composers including David Lang, Gordon Chin and Jim Thirwell. Their first commercial recording, Tight Sweater, featured the works of Marc Mellits and was an NPR Pick of the Week. A joint commissioning project by La Jolla Music Society for SummerFest with the Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival has resulted in new works written for Real Quiet by Marc Neikrug, Kaija Saariaho, Huang Ruo, George Tsontakis and Chinary Ung.
