Delete: no evidence of notability: the Guardian ref looked hopeful but turns out to be the single phrase "music for two violins, agilely played by Angela and Jennifer Chun". Not serious coverage.

Keep: I agree that it's a marginal case. But they have 3 albums from a respected publisher of classical music. They have been covered by the New York Times
12 and the Guardian -- not in great detail, as noted above, but they at least merit the attention of a handful of major papers. Their releases have been reviewed by
The Strad magazine
12, Gramophone
1, and the American Record Guide (not available online)The liner notes from their Bartok CD says that they have won several major competitions, but I've yet to be able to verify that. I'd say it at least meets this criterion:
Has released two or more albums on a major record label or on one of the more important indie labels (i.e., an independent label with a history of more than a few years, and with a roster of performers, many of whom are independently notable). -

Keep per
Kenirwin. Their albums are released by
Harmonia Mundi which seems to meet the criteria cited above. And, two reviews in the NYTimes, plus the other stuff cited above, should be enough to pass
WP:GNG. --

Keep I'm convinced by Kenirwin and RoySmith's arguments that notability standards are met.

Keep The NYT articles convinced me. This is what non-trivial coverage from an independent, reliable source looks like.

Keep I improved the article and added more citations. Passes
WP:GNG for "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject."

Keep Meets
WP:MUSICBIO (they are not a band!) notability criteria per coverage in reliable sources and recordings released on a significant indie label (harmonia mundi).
