Zeitgeist is a new music quartet based in St. Paul

A quartet of musicians animated by a spirit of adventure and collaboration, Zeitgeist has been presenting works of substance with passion and integrity for more than 35 years. With our unique instrumentation of two percussion, piano and woodwinds, we continually strive to forge new links between musicians and music lovers through live performances, commissions, collaborations, recordings and dialogue with our audiences. Zeitgeist's events invite listeners to join in an experience both intimate and challenging—an experience charged with the excitement of the never-before-heard!
