The String Quartet Tribute to Pink Floyd

Vitamin String Quartet

Psychedelic prog-rock anthems stripped of their synthesizers and drums. A haunting, woody reimagining of Floyd's most expansive melodies for a solo string quartet.

A sophisticated and haunting reimagining that trades cosmic scale for intimate, wooden resonance.

Moments Worth Listening For
The way the cello mimics the iconic descending bassline of Money with a percussive, woody snap.
The soaring violin solo in Comfortably Numb that replaces the legendary guitar work with a weeping, operatic intensity.
The eerie, high-register harmonics on Echoes that capture the original's submarine pings using only horsehair and steel.
