The Ariel String Quartet formed in Israel by students at the Jerusalem Academy Middle School of Music and Dance, when its members were teenagers. In addition to performing the traditional string quartet repertoire, the Ariel Quartet regularly collaborates with many Israeli and non-Israeli musicians and composers, The group follows the relatively rare practice of having the two violinists switch parts periodically.
