Significance
Quarterly's "Adonis" mixes the harmonic and melodic strength of their previous work with a newfound interest in texture and found sounds. The compositions are both intimate and cinematic, with instruments supporting and counterpointing each other to create evocative motifs. The album has been described as cool and pure magic for people looking for unusual modern classical stuff.
Quarterly's members have been active in New York City and Boston for over a decade and are known for classical and folk-influenced pieces for guitar and cello.
