The Claudia Quintet, founded in 1997 and Hollenbeck's longest-running group, has made its mark on the jazz world through its singular, genre-defying sound. DownBeatcalls them "a chamber band that has tickled the ears of adventurous listeners for a decade with its deft blend of improvised jazz solos, run-on, minimalist figures that gradually shift shape and color, and unusual instrumentation" and the All Music Guidecalls them one of the "top five progressive jazz units in the U.S."

The presentation of the Claudia Quintet is supported by Chamber Music America's Presenting Jazz Program, funded by the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation. 

This program is also supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council.
