Tetra String Quartet

The Tetra String Quartet is redefining the role of chamber music in today’s society. With relevance and versatility at the forefront of their mission, Tetra performs with the goal of connecting with all audiences. As both educators and performers, the quartet has toured throughout the United States, Europe, and South America. Invested in their home state of Arizona, Tetra became a 501(c)(3) non profit organization to create more opportunities that link performance with public service. Their strong local presence engages audiences from every corner of the community, and reflects their belief that access to the arts is an essential human right. Tetra’s ongoing projects expand access to the community by putting music where it’s not. In 2015, Tetra created the Phoenix chapter of Azure Family Concerts. These free events are fun, friendly, and engaging performances tailored to those on the autism spectrum or with similar challenges. In an effort to further connect with diverse populations, the quartet regularly performs at memory care and assisted living facilities, the Phoenix VA Hospital, and Maricopa County Juvenile Detention Centers. Tetra has been invited to share the impact of their work at events including TEDx Arrowhead Ranch “Act Today, Change Tomorrow”, and Stanford University’s Summer Arts Institute, “Why Music Matters”.
