Our 2025-26 season begins with the extraordinary artistry of this Mexico-based string quartet whose masterful interpretations have defined Latin American chamber music for four decades. Championing both established and emerging composers, their bold and innovative programming and dedication to expanding the repertoire have earned them multiple Latin Grammy Awards and international recognition.
The members of Cuarteto Latinoamericano are the three Bitrán brothers—violinists Saúl and Arón, and cellist Álvaro—along with violist Javier Montiel. They have recorded more than 100 CDs, including nearly the entire Latin American repertoire for the string quartet.
