The Harlem String Quartet advances diversity in
classical music while engaging new audiences with varied repertoire that
includes works by minority composers. Their mission to share their
passion with a wider audience has taken them around the world; from a
2009 performance at The White House for President Obama and First Lady,
Michelle Obama, to a highly successful tour of South Africa in 2012, and
numerous venues in between. Their most recent recording, Hot House,
with jazz master Chick Corea and percussionist Gary Burton was a 2013
multi-Grammy Award winner.
Pamela Mia Paul is both a brilliant performer and a
deeply dedicated teacher. On stage, she has performed with the world’s
great orchestras. She has given concerts throughout the United States,
and in Europe, the People’s Republic of China, South Korea and Turkey
both as soloist and as chamber musician. Dr. Paul has been selected as
one of four judges for the international screening jury of the 2017 Van
Cliburn International Piano competition. She is currently Regents
Professor of Piano at the University of North Texas.
