A Message from Alex:

Dear friends,

A big thank you to those who have already donated and put us on track to produce another Momenta Festival next fall! This ambitious--some even call it “herculean”--undertaking is only possible with your support.

Momenta has always been synonymous with new music, and this past year was no exception. Recent premieres include Eun Young Lee’s Pax Aeterna; Lawrence Kramer’s String Quartet No. 11; and Stephanie Griffin’s Overgrown Cathedral; as well as premieres of revised works by Atefeh Einali, Lia Su, and Dominic Wills at the Intimacy of Creativity Festival in Hong Kong. We also premiered almost a dozen works by Binghamton University composition students during our residency this past spring, and we look forward to seeing many of those same students--as well as some new faces--with new pieces in spring 2026!
​
A gift to Momenta is a gift to these and other composers whose music we bring to life and add to Momenta’s unique personal repertoire.

A Message from Michael:

​Dear Friends and Supporters of Momenta Quartet,

This holiday giving season we are asking you to keep Momenta Quartet in mind! One of our main goals as an ensemble has always been offering concerts at low or no cost to our audiences. We have a number of free concerts in and around New York City planned for 2026, but as always, we rely on our generous individual supporters to make these events a reality. This is especially true of our annual four-concert Momenta Festival, which we strive to keep free (or pay what you wish) every season.
Music is for everybody! We want to keep our concerts free for all members of our community, but we can’t do that without your help.
