The Knights are a New York–based orchestra founded by brothers Eric and Colin Jacobsen.^[1] While music students in the late 1990s, the brothers were interested in performing classical and modern music. These gatherings turned into public recitals and the ensemble The Knights of the Many-Sided Table was formed. As the number of performances increased and the group grew, the original collaborative spirit of chamber music remained. The name – now simply "The Knights" – has symbolized the orchestra’s quest: always searching out something bold and true to the music.
