The all-Mendelssohn concert presented at the Music@Menlo series on July 21, 2009 was beyond superb. I have been going to string quartet concerts for over 55 years yet found myself sitting at the edge of my chair with anticipation of the Quartet's fabulous interpretations of the Ops 12 & 13. Thanks.

One of the finest quartets I have ever heard. I am looking forward to seeing you again in Germany!

A wonderful sound and musical cohesion that resonates deeply, evoking the widest of emotional ranges for me, and potentially other listeners who have yet to discover the Pacifica Quartet.

My wife and I have been privileged to hear your performances on multiple occasions, but you outdid yourselves during your recent concerts in Pittsburgh. The music was so thrilling and virtuostic. Please come back soon!!

Come back to London soon - you were outstanding at the Wigmore Hall. I'm converted to Mendelssohn string quartets. Even civilizing our 2 year old. All good things to you.

Just got back from your Mendelssohn recital at Winthrop Hall in Perth, Western Australia. WOW! I'm absolutely speechless! What breathless panache, exuberance, and sensitivity you all displayed in your stunning performance. Thank you for a thoroughly memorable afternoon.

The 5 Carter quartets at the Wigmore Hall in London last night were outstanding. You must have been exhausted not only physically from the hard work but mentally from so much wonderful music. Pacifica and Elliott Carter are America at its very BEST!! Thank you, thank you!!

Just a slightly awed word of appreciation for your marvellous all-Carter concert at the Wigmore Hall last night. Your legierezza touch and collective ensemble were a delight throughout the long and impressive evening; I can't wait to get the Naxos CD's.

I heard your superb performance at Longy in Cambridge (Beeth. Op.132, Carter #3, Crumb #3). I especially enjoyed the Carter, which sounded much more coherent than the last live performance I heard (Juilliard Quartet at Ravinia in 1976!). I thought your arrangement of the duos with Vc/Vlc on stage right facing the audience worked well (the Juilliard used the opposite arrangement and the duos faced each another), and made it visually (as well as audibly) obvious how those two parts fit together. Thank you for a wonderful evening of great music!

Fantastic! We thoroughly enjoyed your wonderful performances of Beethoven Quartets at Music In The Park, St. Paul - Minnesota; a truly memorable time, 11/8 & 9/2008!

I'm impressed beyond words by the delightful, masterful, inspiring performances of this group! Both their playing and their commentary are absolutely superlative. As a long-time amateur chamber player, I know exactly how difficult this music is....and I keep learning from each of the Pacifica's performances.

Wonderful + Wonderful musical performance. Beethoven - more outstanding than we've ever heard. Our minds were focused on each phrase of the music, including the Hindemith. Such a monumental musical conversation. Your precision movements made the music dance. It was a thrill for us to be in the audience. We look forward to a future performance.
