Biography
Tesseris is an Edinburgh-based string quartet specialising in contemporary repertoire and collaboration, including projects with emerging composers and visual artists. Born in Germany, Ireland, Cyprus and Scotland and well-travelled across multiple continents on the way, Irini Dimitriadou, Rebecca Minio-Paluello, Emma Lloyd and Jonathan McBride have met through conservatoire study, performance and teaching and found their common bond through a love of chamber music.
