Momenta Quartet

The Momenta Quartet is a New York string quartet founded in 2004 by the violist Stephanie Griffin, who still plays in it, with the violinist Emilie-Anne Gendron and the cellist Michael Haas in its recent line-up. Its programmes centre on modern and contemporary music beside older works, and it runs an annual Momenta Festival in New York, with each concert curated by a member. Its New World releases include Alvin Singleton's Four String Quartets.
