The Catalyst Quartet, composed of Puerto Ricans Karla Donehew Pérez (violin), Abi Fayette (violin), Paul Laraia (viola), and Karlos Rodríguez (cello), was founded in 2010 by the internationally acclaimed Sphinx Organization. This ensemble believes in the unity that can be achieved through music and creates its programs and projects with that purpose, redefining and reimagining the classical music experience. The Catalyst Quartet combines a firm commitment to diversity and education with a passion for contemporary works.
Acclaimed by The New York Times in its Carnegie Hall debut as “a consistently energetic and finely polished ensemble,” the Catalyst Quartet is known for its perfect unity, synchronicity, and unparalleled performance. The ensemble has toured extensively throughout the United States and abroad. In recent seasons, it has held international engagements in Cuba, Canada, Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, and, now, Puerto Rico.

From Puerto Rico to the World
The talented Karla Donehew Pérez, a Puerto Rican violinist born and raised on this soil, returns home as part of one of the world’s leading chamber music ensembles. Her artistic training, discipline, and musical sensitivity have led her to perform on high-profile stages around the world, and now she gives us the privilege of hearing her live, in her homeland.
Karla is more than an artist: she’s a symbol of what Puerto Rico can achieve. Her return represents not only a musical celebration, but also a tribute to our roots, to the local talent that shines abroad, and to the unbreakable connection between an artist and their country.
