## SHAR String Quartet Competition 2012 - Winning Performances

Posted by [Guest Blogger](https://blog.sharmusic.com/author/guest-blogger) on May 29, 2012 2:47:00 PM

*![Megan Fedor](https://blog.sharmusic.com/hs-fs/file-14335100-jpg/images/mf.jpg)SHAR Apprentice Megan Fedor shares videos of the winning groups from our 2012 String Quartet Competition. Watch below!*

**Division 2:   
**Violinists Sho Harvey and Trevor Herman Hilker, violist Jacob Caldwell, and cellist Angelina Cicchella formed their string ensemble in the fall of 2010 as the Dexter High School String Quartet. During their first year, in May 2011, the quartet performed in the MYAF. Upon entering their senior year of high school, the members renamed their ensemble the **“****A Quartet****.” **They played the Grieg String Quartet for District S&E and went on to states in March 2012 to be nominated to MYAF for their performance of Shostakovich’s String Quartet No. 8.

"A Quartet" has enjoyed practicing and playing together over the past two years.  Each member plans to attend college in the fall of 2012. Sho plans to double major in violin performance and biochemistry at either Case Western University or U of M. Trevor will attend U of M where he will study in the honors program of the College of LSA. Jacob is planning to study philosophy at the College of Wooster. Angelina will attend the University of Pugent Sound in Tacoma, Washington to pursue a degree in cello performance.

**Division 1:**  
Although this is their first time playing with each other in the **Calliope Quartet**, Dana Johnson, Giancarlo Latta, Nathan Carrillo, and Daniel Rothchild have played together for several years in various ensembles. They are all members of the Pioneer Ensemble, a group of Pioneer High School students who play gigs around the community.

In addition to playing violin, Dana enjoys cooking and eating desserts. She also likes miniature things. When he’s not with his violin (which is rare), Giancarlo likes attending classical concerts and writing. Nathan enjoys discussing politics and the economy. Daniel is interested in computer science and enjoys drinking apple juice. Dana, Giancarlo, and Nathan all plan on attending music school; while Daniel aspires to other pursuits.
