Olympia Quartet

Yevlaliia Yershova, Ellen Crowley [violins], Charlie Duff [viola], Adam Joyce [cello]

The Olympia Quartet was formed in September 2024 in the MTU Cork School of Music, under the tutelage of Christopher Marwood. The quartet consists of violinists Yevlaliia Yershova and Ellen Crowley, violist Charlie Duff, and cellist Adam Joyce. Their shared love for exploring a mix of classical and contemporary music, and their passion for bringing fresh energy and creativity to their performances, draws them together as an ensemble.

Since their formation, the Olympia Quartet have performed in St. Catherine’s Cultural Centre in Kinsale, the Aula Maxima Hall in University College Cork, in the Whyte Recital Hall in RIAM as part of the EMPOWER Dublin event, and in the MTUCSM Curtis Auditorium. They are delighted to be performing at the West Cork Chamber Music Festival this year.

Whether performing well-known chamber music works or exploring new compositions, the Olympia Quartet strive to make meaningful connections with their audience through music and showcasing their joy of playing together.
