The Imbroglio Sextet consists of professional musicians who met while volunteering as teachers in Haiti in 2013. Despite differences of language and nationality, they realized they enjoyed each other’s company and making music together. They decided to form a group to play, record, and tour together. The group combines a string quartet with trumpet and clarinet to produce a sound reflective of its members’ musical training and multi-national origins. Imbroglio Sextet’s membership has come from multiple countries: Spain, Haiti, the United States, Germany, Bolivia, and Mexico. The Imbroglio Sextet’s endeavors each include a component to benefit music in Haiti through Blume Haiti and the École de Musique Sainte Trinité, the school that runs the Haitian music camp where the group’s members met. They assemble at most once or twice a year in world wide. 2024’s Scandanavian Tour lineup will include: Sydney Guillaume: Conductor/Composer (Haiti/United States), Salva Contreras: Clarinet (Spain), Victoria Joseph: Violin (Haiti), Katherine Baloff: Violin (United States), Javier Navascués: Cello (Spain), Lucia Nuín: Viola (Spain), Cara Pollard: Trumpet (United States)
