Guitar virtuoso Eliot Fisk teams up with one of today’s most acclaimed young
chamber ensembles for an Italian sojourn. Among other musical delights is rarely
heard string music by two legendary opera composers, Puccini and Verdi.
“a warm ensemble sound, distinctive solo voices…
and an easy-going communication that certainly won me over.”
—Houston Chronicle on the Enso String Quartet
“[Eliot Fisk is a] great, high-energy classical guitarist.”
—The New York Times
