ABOUT THE ARTISTS
Tallā Rouge, meaning “The Red Gold,” was established by the fiery Persian-American & Cajun-American violists, Aria Cheregosha & Lauren Spaulding. Formed under the mentorship of Roger Tapping at The Juilliard School, & Karoly Schranz of the Takács Quartet, the LGBTQ+ ensemble made their debut virtually with “Music for Food” in 2020. Tallā Rouge has since been recognized by the Catalyst Quartet as Nola ChamberFest’s “Emerging Artists” of the year, and is featured as an Emerging Ensemble at the 2022 American Viola Society & International Viola Congress. Tallā Rouge’s intrinsic need to capture the spirit of music is fueled by a mutual love for outreach, accessibility, and authenticity —values that set the tone for the duo’s refreshingly intimate stage presence. Sharing the belief that “good music is good music,” Tallā Rouge presents the works of living composers alongside reimagined classical works inviting an open dialogue through their diverse programming.
