TERMINUS QUARTET

Sacha completed his Master’s in Classical Violin at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague under Ilona Sieh Dhian Ho. Before this, he pursued a Master’s in Music Education and spent two years assisting the renowned violinist and pedagogue Mauricio Fuks at Indiana University in Bloomington. Sacha also holds a Master’s in Music Psychology from UNED.

As an active pedagogue, Sacha coaches at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague, runs a private studio at Strijkdomein, and teaches at Het Klooster music school in Woerden. He is a committee member for the ESTA 2025 Conference in Amersfoort and conducts research focused on mindfulness and concentration in music performance.

Having been involved in quartet playing from a young age, Sacha developed a strong interest in contemporary music during his time at the Ensemble Academy in The Hague, where he collaborated with composers such as Seung-Won Oh and Kate Moore. He has performed solo and chamber works by composers like Lutosławski, Takemitsu, Seung-Won Oh, Caroline Shaw, and Sofia Gubaidulina, as well as works by emerging composers Juan Montero Palma and Annija Zariņa. His passion for quartet playing and contemporary music ultimately led to the founding of the Terminus Quartet, formerly known as Resonance Quartet.
