MGS presents Terra String Quartet
Gold medalists and Grand Prize winners of the 2022 Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition, the Terra String Quartet is a vibrant young international ensemble based in New York City. They are composed of graduates of The Juilliard School’s prestigious Honors Chamber Music Program, The New England Conservatory, Harvard University and the Manhattan School of Music. Praised for their "remarkable maturity and musicality" and "superb ensemble playing" (Hyde Park Herald, Chicago), these four musicians hail from across the globe and, through their unique individuality as artists, are committed to infusing the string quartet with equal parts passion, spontaneity, and humor.
Consisting of Harriet Langley and Amelia Dietrich on violin, Ramón Carrero Martínez on viola, and Audrey Chen, cello, you can listen to Terra performing Debussy here.
