Comprised of violinists Sommer Altier and Judith Kim, violist Sydney Link and cellist Amelia Smerz, the Trillium String Quartet formed in September 2022. Trillium is the Graduate Quartet in Residence at Montclair State University. The group holds performance degrees from renowned music schools including the Cleveland Institute of Music, Mannes School of Music, and McGill University.
The quartet works with private studios and youth orchestras such as ESYO in masterclasses in the Hudson Valley and gives concerts in various community centers. Above all, TSQ seeks to form genuine connections with their music and their audiences.
