Osso

String quartet with a modernist pulse, members of the New York- and Berlin-based Osso have collaborated and performed with an array of artists and genres, including Jay-Z, Alice and Ravi Coltrane, The New Pornographers, My Brightest Diamond, The Polyphonic Spree, The National, Devotchka and Kanye West.  Their performance of interpretations of Sufjan Stevens’ electronica album Enjoy Your Rabbit—each song named for a year of the Chinese zodiac—recomposes computer keystrokes into rhythmic classical arrangements, bridging the drama of experimental electronica, indie rock and the nuance of chamber harmonies.
