Formed in 2024 at the Butler School of Music at the University of Texas at Austin, the Soha Quartet has rapidly distinguished itself as a prize-winning ensemble celebrated for its vibrant musicality and deep commitment to community engagement. The quartet won first prize at the 2025 Music Teachers National Association Chamber Music Competition and earned second prize plus the audience prize at the 2026 Saint Paul String Quartet Competition.

Deeply invested in education and connection, the Soha Quartet has represented the Butler School of Music as Community Representatives for the Austin Chamber Music Center since spring 2025, performing recitals across Austin and leading coaching sessions and masterclasses for public school students.

Beginning fall 2026, the quartet will continue its professional ascent as the Young Professional String Quartet in Residence at the Butler School of Music, studying under the Miró Quartet; an exciting next chapter for an ensemble already making a marked impact on stage, in education, and within the community.

We are soha.
