However, that thread soon turned into a discussion about Christopher Walken's famous cowbell routine on SNL.
The quartet actually doing the playing in that movie is the Brentano. A wonderful group I've had the pleasure of meeting and seeing in recital. Nina Lee, the Brentano cellist, also appears at the end of the movie as the cellist who replaces Walken in mid-recital.
Usually watching actors pretend to play musical instruments is painful, but in this movie most of the actors do a very credible job.
