Formed in 2013, Quartet Dalí – Asher Kurtz (Guitar) Kenji Herbert (Guitar) Zack Nestel-Patt (Bass) Charlie Van Kirk (Percussion) – began by presenting improvised live scores to a series of classic and contemporary silent films from classic directors such as Chaplin, Dalí, Duchamp, Méliès and others. The group has since branched out to collaborate with other creative mediums including dance and theater. The freedom of improvisation allows the group to flow freely between different musical influences including classical, jazz, indie rock, avant-garde, and everything in between. Rooted in the surrealism of Salvador Dalí and leaning towards avant-garde, Quartet Dalí creates a performance that blends musical genre and works with other mediums such as film to allow both the music and the film to be viewed anew and re-imagined.
