Product Information
Jana. Brit. Daniel. Henry. They would never have been friends if they hadn't needed each other. They would never have found each other except for the art which drew them together. They would never have become family without their love for the music, for each other. Brit is the second violinist, a beautiful and quiet orphan; on the viola is Henry, a prodigy who's always had it easy; the cellist is Daniel, the oldest and an angry skeptic who sleeps around; and on first violin is Jana, their flinty, resilient leader. Together, they are the Van Ness Quartet. After the group's youthful, rocky start, they experience devastating failure and wild success, heartbreak and marriage, triumph and loss, betrayal and enduring loyalty. They are always tied to each other - by career, by the intensity of their art, by the secrets they carry, by choosing each other over and over again. Following these four unforgettable characters, Aja Gabel's debut novel gives a riveting look into the high-stakes, cutthroat world of musicians, and of lives made in concert. The story of Brit and Henry and Daniel and Jana, The Ensemble is a heart-skipping portrait of ambition, friendship, and the tenderness of youth.

Reviews
"Aja Gabel's powerful debut offers a sensitive portrait of four young musicians forging their paths through life: sometimes at odds with each other, sometimes in harmony, but always inextricably linked by their shared pasts." -- Celeste Ng , New York Times bestselling author of Everything I Never Told You and Little Fires Everywhere "With uncommon clarity and empathy, Aja Gabel brings us inside the passionate, complex, and sometimes cutthroat intimacy that exists among the four members of a string quartet. A wise and powerful novel about love, life, and music. I didn't want it to end." -- Maggie Shipstead , New York Times bestselling author of Seating Arrangements and Astonish Me, "This lilting, richly detailed story follows a group of friends -- also a string quartet -- as they grow and change together thoughout adulthood. Told from alternative perspectives, it gives us a riveting look inside the world of classical musicians and an intimate study of friendships." -- Marie Claire "Gabel''s rich characters and melodic prose (fitting for a story about professional chamber musicians) make the novel a satisfying read. Comparisons to Meg Wolitzer''s The Interestings are apt." -- Real Simple "A page-turner of a debut.... The Ensemble is set in the world of classical music (so, yes, this is a good book for all you Mozart in the Jungle fans) and tracks the way the friends, who comprise the Van Ness Quartet, navigate their youthful inexperience, riotous success, professional failures, and all of the other things that come with sky-rocketing ambition and a reliance on other people." -- Nylon "Stunningly resonant... With remarkable assurance, Gabel takes the four [characters] through their shaky early performances and expertly ties their individual and collective lives together with generous doses of empathy... A virutuoso performance." -- Booklist (STARRED review) "Gabel explores friendship and art with great warmth, humanity, and wisdom." -- Library Journal (STARRED review) "Wonderful.... The four characters are individually memorable, but as a quartet they''re unforgettable." -- Publishers Weekly (STARRED review) "Aja Gabel''s ambitious debut novel is a beautiful study of just how apt a metaphor classical music is for relationships." -- New York magazine''s Vulture "Aja Gabel''s debut novel centers around the four friends who make up the Van Ness Quartet: Brit, Daniel, Henry, and Jana, each wildly different but electric together despite the ups and downs of their career in music. Gabel examines the intricate complexities of their intense friendship, loyalties, and ambitions over a decade and a half in this book, which itself reads quite like a lyrical composition. You''ll come for the music and stay for Gabel''s realistic portrait of modern friendship." -- Buzzfeed "Aja Gabel''s powerful debut offers a sensitive portrait of four young musicians forging their paths through life: sometimes at odds with each other, sometimes in harmony, but always inextricably linked by their shared pasts." --Celeste Ng , New York Times bestselling author of Everything I Never Told You and Little Fires Everywhere "With uncommon clarity and empathy, Aja Gabel brings us inside the passionate, complex, and sometimes cutthroat intimacy that exists among the four members of a string quartet. A wise and powerful novel about love, life, and music. I didn''t want it to end." --Maggie Shipstead , New York Times bestselling author of Seating Arrangements and Astonish Me "Sweeping, romantic, elegiac, The Ensemble gives you the feeling of being inside the music of a quartet, a look into the relationships under the music, the love and heartbreak, set against their ruthless commitment to both their art, and to each other. Aja Gabel is a phenomenon." --Alexander Chee, author of The Queen of the Night and How to Write an Autobiographical Novel "Compelling." -- Town & Country " The Ensemble deserves a standing ovation. A gripping tale of four musician''s journeys through discord and harmony, life and love. Aja Gabel is a brilliant young writer with the rare gift of an old soul." --Mat Johnson , author of Pym and Loving Day "I often admire novels that are platforms for their writers'' own stories, upon which their own singular character, with its own singular history, is carefully incised. This, however, is a novel of a different, more expansive, and altogether more electrifying kind. Aja Gabel contains at least four complete human beings inside her, and I''m guessing countless others. She knows these people down to their cells, and she gives all of herself to them." --Kevin Brockmeier, "Aja Gabel's powerful debut offers a sensitive portrait of four young musicians forging their paths through life: sometimes at odds with each other, sometimes in harmony, but always inextricably linked by their shared pasts." --Celeste Ng , New York Times bestselling author of Everything I Never Told You and Little Fires Everywhere "With uncommon clarity and empathy, Aja Gabel brings us inside the passionate, complex, and sometimes cutthroat intimacy that exists among the four members of a string quartet.

On time arrival and perfectly packaged. Excellent service overall. Only thing I wished is that the book had color illustrations not entirely black and white BUT it is not the seller's fault; apparently this is how modern books are now published without color pictures 😒
