Quo Vadis Classic Quartet
Quo Vadis was born in March 2006, with the main theater in the city of Mérida as the stage for its successful debut - "José Peón Contreras" - the most important stage in southeastern Mexico. Its core is made up of four talented musicians of European origin - Pawel Blaszkowski (Poland) and Tim Myall (UK) violins, Ella Shamoyan (Armenia) viola and Nadezda Golubeva (Russia) cello. Being a versatile chamber group, they frequently incorporate renowned musicians to form a string, piano or guitar quartet. The presentations they have had met with an immediate and very enthusiastic reaction from the public, they were recorded by the radio of the Autonomous University of Yucatan and published in the main newspapers of the Yucatan peninsula. Among his first achievements stand out: - Appearance as a soloist accompanied by the Chamber Orchestra of the Autonomous University of Yucatan (June 2006) - International Guitar Festival in Mérida, Yucatán (2006, 2007, 2008) - International Festival of Arts in Mérida , Yucatán (2007, 2009) - Cycle of Religious Music for Holy Week in Mérida, Yucatán (April 2007) -The Closure of the Autumn Cultural Festival 2007 - Quo Vadis as guest soloist of the Yucatán Symphony Orchestra - International Chamber Music Festival de la Colonia Tovar, Venezuela 2007 - Festival del Caribe, Santiago de Cuba, Cuba 2012 Quo Vadis recently recorded (at the same time as a world premiere) The Goldberg Variations by J.S.Bach in arrangement for string trio - an unpublished work by Federico Sarudiansky. “... for us - as foreigners - the idea of the ensemble arose as a response to an existential question that we asked ourselves after arriving in an unknown, distant and culturally different land such as Mexico. That question was: Quo Vadis? which translates from the Latin “where are you going?” or “what is your destiny? The four of us are dedicated to the search for perfection, sound, spirit, harmony and happiness...” Pawel Blaszkowski - violinist.
