ABOUT THE ARTISTS
The Mousai Quintet from the Eastman School of Music consists of members Julia Benitez-Nelson (flute), joining the group in the fall of 2023, Ernest Chau (oboe), Scott Shao (clarinet), Kenny Ford (bassoon), and Alina Liebschner (horn), and began as a wind quintet formed at random in the fall of 2021 by their coach, Professor Anne Harrow. Acting as a quintet both in the Eastman chamber music curriculum and independently in their community, the Mousai Quintet is now reaching outside the Rochester area. Recent performances include opening the Eastman Centennial Celebration in the fall of 2021, playing for the community with the Eastman To-Go program, multiple Eastman Honors Chamber Recitals, the inaugural Context Conference in the fall of 2023, and winning the Chamber Music Foundation of New England’s Adult Age Division along with winning the Silver Medal for the Foundation’s Michael Rudyak Memorial Prize and Silver Medal for the Frances Walton Competition in 2024.
