Acclaimed for their virtuosic and exhilarating performances of old and new repertoire, the Eberli Ensemble is comprised of four talented artists whose instruments include clarinet, violin, cello and piano (the clarinetist, Evan Spritzer, is also a narrator). The ensemble performs a mix of duos, trios and quartets, presenting innovative and entertaining programming ranging from the Baroque to the avant-garde. The Eberli Ensemble has worked with many living composers and has premiered works of Aaron Jay Kernis, Michael Torke, Yehudi Wyner, and Ben Weber, among others. The group has been invited to perform in Europe and across the United States. Their concert appearances have included performances at Carnegie’s Weill Hall, Merkin Hall and live appearances on New York’s WNYC Radio and the nationally syndicated Saint Paul Sunday radio program. Their concert tours have taken them as far west as the 1998 Festival of New American Music in Sacramento, and Old First Concerts in San Francisco to the International Deia Festival and Clasicos del Siglo XX del Palacio March in Mallorca, Spain. The Eberli Ensemble has been honored with awards and grants from the American Composers Forum, Meet The Composer, the New York Foundation for the Arts and the Scarmolin Foundation.
