Carya String Quartet
Now in their sixth season, the Carya String Quartet strives to create community through performances of new and old chamber music from around the world. Drawn together by Houston’s international and inclusive arts culture, the members - Laura Cividino, Claire Gallagher, Rainey Weber, and Hannah Deplazes - hail from Italy, Pennsylvania, New Mexico, and North Dakota. As the only all-women string quartet in the greater Houston area, Carya aims to bring attention to women composers in their musical and educational programs, and will continue to emphasize these works on each program of the upcoming season. 2023-2024 concerts will explore the idea “everything old is new again” through pairings of Ludwig van Beethoven’s string quartets with the responses and reflections of composers today. Highlights include four beloved Beethoven string quartets, as well as compositions by Gabriella Smith, Aaron Kernis, Anna Clyne, and Caroline Shaw.
