Terminal Quartet

Terminal Quartet Brisbane, 2004

Garton's Terminal Quartet first appeared in Melbourne 2003 and grew into an international Quartet performing in Korea, Austria and Australia.

Members have included Ollie Olsen, Steve Law, Joseph 'Seppo' Gründler, Ludwig Zeininger, Peter Venus, Robert Henke (aka Monolake), Ash Wednesday (Einstürzende Neubauten), Ross Bencina (Audiomulch), Jin Sangtae, Ryu Hankil, Choi Soohwan, Hong Solme and Australian luminaries Andy Bagley, John Grant, Jeremy Yuille, Julian Knowles, Andrew Kettle, Paul Abad and Lawrence English.

The Terminal Quartet performs structured improvisations. Musicians research and arrange individual movements in isolation from each other as governed by the context and structure of Andrew Garton's compositions, in particular the Drift Theory series. The Terminal Quartet is comprised of a fresh combination of musicians for each performance, each representing entirely different styles, skills, techniques, approaches and cultures.
