Back in October 2023, Daniel Rowland announced during his appearance in our Diligentia series that the formation of the Arethusa Quartet was imminent, and this intention became a reality that same year. The three women in the ensemble had previously performed with Rowland. The ensemble's name refers to the mythical, magical water nymph Arethusa. According to its own website, this quartet unites four exciting, internationally renowned musicians, each with a background as a soloist and as a player in world-renowned chamber music ensembles. In this quartet, they combine their vast imagination and creativity with a captivating intensity. This intensity is palpable during their performances because they are always "in the moment" while playing music. Since its founding, the ensemble has been a high guest at numerous festivals and concert venues. Its members are passionate advocates of contemporary music.
And who doesn't think of Rowland, who grew up in Weerselo (Twente), when they think of the Stift Festival, where he and other top musicians have been performing successfully twice a year since 2005. This renowned festival has since attracted audiences from far and wide. Website: www.arethusaquartet.com
