The Eybler Quartet came together in late 2004 to explore the works of the first century of the string quartet, with a healthy attention to lesser known composers such as their namesake, Joseph Leopold Edler von Eybler. The group plays on instruments appropriate to the period of the music it performs. In its brief but busy existence, the Toronto-based ensemble has consistently garnered praise for their "glowing and committed,” "spirited,” and "lively and energizing” live performances.

Violinists Julia Wedman and Aisslinn Nosky, and violist Patrick G. Jordan, are all members of Tafelmusik Baroque Orchestra; Julia and Aisslinn are also members of I FURIOSI Baroque Ensemble. ‘Cellist Margaret Gay is much in demand as both a modern and period instrument player.

The group brings a unique combination of talents and skills: years of collective experience as chamber musicians, technical prowess, experienced in period instrument performance, and an unquenchable passion for the repertoire. This world premiere recording of Eybler's Opus 1 is also the premiere recording of the group.
