string quartet

An avid chamber musician, Tomas Cotik, has performed extensively with various different groups performing duos to octets in the United States and Europe. Tomas has collaborated in performances with members from the Cleveland, Miami, Pro Arte and Vogler String Quartets among others.  

This season Tomas Cotik joined the Delray String Quartet, hailed as a 'World-Class String Quartet' by Sharon McDaniel of the Palm Beach Post. The seventh season of the Delray String Quartet includes five diverse programs with a variety of works by Bach, Haydn, Beethoven, Brahms, Mendelssohn, Schumann, Liszt, Shostakovich, Arensky, Dvorak, Fuchs, Borodin, Sibelius and Tchaikovsky.

Most recently he was the first violinist of the Harrington String Quartet, a distinguished ensemble, established in 1981 by a generous gift from the late Sybil B. Harrington. As a member of this quartet, Tomas just recorded Mendelssohn’s string quintets with violist James Dunham and producer Blanton Alspaugh in honor of Mendelssohn’s bicentennial for release in early 2010. Mr. Cotik toured with the quartet throughout Texas, Oklahoma and New Mexico. The quartet’s concerts were broadcasted by HPPR. As quartet in residence at WTAMU University the group collaborated with the Dance, English and History departments to create innovative projects.
