Canadian Hits Unplugged / Various - Canadian Hits Unplugged [CD]

The Saint John String Quartet continues to make their mark on the Canadian music scene with the release of their new album, Canadian Hits: Unplugged. This album represents a step outside of a string quartet's norm with 16 pop hits from Canadian icons, including Leonard Cohen, the Arkells, Joni Mitchell and The Tragically Hip. This is the sixth recording release by the Quartet, and follows in the inventive direction of the group's previous offerings. For more than 30 years, the Quartet has stood among Canada's leading chamber music ensembles. The stylistic and energetic troupe is highly sought after for special collaborations within different musical genres - a reflection of their versatility and flexibility.
