About Concordia Quartet
Performing under the banner of Singapore-based musicians' group Resound Collective, Concordia Quartet consists of four prize-winning musicians: Edward Tan, Kim Kyu Ri, Matthias Östringer and Theophilus Tan.
It was formed to bring chamber music in the string quartet form to greater audiences, sharing in Resound's vision of enriching the classical music landscape by performing at the highest level.
Immediately following their successful debut in February 2020, Concordia Quartet was part of the cast in Wild Rice's The Importance of Being Earnest. The quartet also staged two virtual livestreamed concerts in June and September 2020.
Concordia Quartet looks forward to bringing more string quartet performances to the community in the future, as part of their ongoing outreach efforts.

协和四重奏的成立初衷是为了将弦乐四重奏形式的室内乐带给更多的观众,与主乐团Resound的愿景一样,团员希望以最高水平的演出丰富古典音乐的内涵。
2020年2月成功首演后,协和四重奏随即成为野米剧场《不可儿戏》的成员之一。乐团还在2020年6月和9月举办了两场在线直播的虚拟音乐会。
