2011-05-20 15:50:29And all the Musica Viva staff are here in our board room to meet the artists. #asktheartists
2011-05-20 15:51:08CV: You're about to celebrate your 20th anniversary as a quartet? Do you feel really ancient? #asktheartists
2011-05-20 15:51:29SC: Sometimes I feel ancient, but not from playing in a quartet... #asktheartists
2011-05-20 15:51:46SC: I still get a lot of satisfaction from playing. It hasn't gotten old. #asktheartists
2011-05-20 15:52:03CV: Having worked together 20 years, it's astonishing that you still get along! You actually talk. #asktheartists
2011-05-20 15:52:44CV: When you started, were you all at Juilliard at the time? #asktheartists
2011-05-20 15:52:55MS: Yes, we were all there eventually. We were all there for graduate school. #asktheartists
2011-05-20 15:53:15NL: It's amazing - the others were all born within a few months of each other. #asktheartists
2011-05-20 15:53:32CV: But still, it's an extraordinary achievement. It's normally luck that quartets last a long time. #asktheartists
2011-05-20 15:53:50MS: I think there's some luck - and also some brilliance. #asktheartists
2011-05-20 15:54:06MS: The advice I give to young quartet players starting out is that you should feel that nothing can go wrong. #asktheartists
2011-05-20 15:54:26CV: Have you read your interview in the program guides? It's interesting that Mark says you were going to work really hard... #asktheartists
2011-05-20 15:55:11CV: ... and live a life of penury. #asktheartists
2011-05-20 15:55:33MA: Yes, Mark and I roomed together for 3 or 4 years. But we're out of the poor stage now. #asktheartists
2011-05-20 15:55:59MS: It's an extraordinary repertoire. We can play these pieces for the rest of our lives and not run out. #asktheartists
2011-05-20 15:56:25CV: Talking about the repertoire, you have a project to record all late Beethoven quartets. Where is that at? #asktheartists
