Giancarlo Latta

Fiercely committed to the music of our time, violinist, composer, and writer Giancarlo Latta is interested in the intersection and convergence of music old and new. Through a broad repertoire and bold dedication to wide-ranging collaborative possibilities, he curates projects and programs that explore varied compositional voices and draw threads across styles and centuries. He has performed with flutist Claire Chase and violinist Patricia Kopatchinskaja, and in 2022 was the soloist in Tyshawn Sorey’s For Marcos Balter at the Spoleto Festival USA. He performs regularly with many ensembles in New York and across the country, including the Orchestra of St. Luke’s, the San Diego Symphony, Contemporaneous, and the Houston-based conductorless ensemble Kinetic, which he co-founded. Latta has been a member of the acclaimed Argus Quartet since 2019, with whom he has performed at Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, the Morgan Library, and many other major chamber music venues across the country.
