Join us for the opening concert of our inaugural Freeman Parker Chamber Music Series as we welcome the acclaimed Terra String Quartet. A vibrant young ensemble based in New York City, the ensemble is composed of graduates of The Juilliard School, The New England Conservatory, Harvard University, and The Curtis Institute of Music. Praised for their “remarkable maturity and musicality” and “superb ensemble playing” (Hyde Park Herald, Chicago), these four musicians are known for their sincere storytelling, commitment to artistic excellence, and versatile approach to repertoire, and they strive to foster conversation and genuine human connection through their performances and pedagogy. Their name is a nod to their multicultural origins — together, this foursome represents four continents and speaks six languages.

Admission Cost: Free

As part of its fall residency at USC, the Terra String Quartet presents a free, family-friendly concert in the Darla Moore School of Business’s Hootie Johnson Performance Hall. Celebrated for its compelling storytelling, artistic excellence, and versatile approach to repertoire, the quartet creates performances that inspire conversation and foster meaningful human connection. Through both its concerts and educational work, Terra String Quartet seeks to engage audiences with music that is vibrant, thoughtful, and deeply communicative.
