El Paso Cello Quartet

The members of this El Paso Cello Quartet met in 2004 while playing in a community orchestra in New Mexico. Out of their sheer love of playing ensemble music, they would get together from time to time, away from the orchestral setting, to play whatever arrangements for four cellos they could find. Not many arrangements were available, so this El Paso Cello Quartet decided to create its own, focusing initially on fun-to-play pieces such as show songs, fiddle tunes, folk music and old standards. From there they moved on to the Beatles, classic old rock tunes, and more recent pop songs. As their playlist expanded, their enthusiasm also grew, and soon they were being asked to play for community and social events, weddings, and ultimately in commercial venues.
