"a little orchestra of some of New York's best strings-about-town" The New Yorker These are The Knights - a fellowship of young musicians from diverse and accomplished backgrounds, who come together for the shared joy of musical exploration. The Knights have brought audiences varied and engaging programs consisting of oddities and favorites from all eras as well as world premieres, collaborations with jazz artists, singer-songwriters and arrangements of folk music from different world traditions in their quest to bring new light to old works and new works to light. The group takes on many forms from a conductor-less chamber orchestra to a full orchestra that includes some of New York's most sought after wind and percussion players.  Members of the group are graduates of Juilliard, Curtis, Manhattan, Mannes and Eastman, and include members of Yo-Yo Ma's Silk Road Ensemble.  As independent soloists, members of the group have performed with the New York Philharmonic, Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Israel Philharmonic, to name a few, and have appeared at the world's most prestigious music festivals, including Marlboro, Tanglewood, Stillwater, Lucerne, Salzburg, and Moritzburg.
