* Performer
* Composer

Recorder player and composer Terri Hron spends her time finding the right balance between performance, composition and improvisation. She began this search at the Conservatory of Amsterdam, where she studied all three subjects. Terri is often asked to be involved in performances of early music with a twist: in 2008, the Pacific Baroque Orchestra invited her to play with them and write a new work for the orchestra based on the Vivaldi concerti she chose to perform. As a contemporary music specialist, she has developed a highly personal way of playing and using her instruments, which has made her in demand as an improviser and interpreter of new works.
 One of her main activities is an ongoing project, Bird on a Wire, for which she commissions pieces recorder and electronics. She toured and recorded the first programme of works in the fall of 2008. Her groups include the multi-disciplinary SpaceMelt with Sam Davidson and Michael Markowsky and the renaissance consort Forbidden Fruit. She collaborates with a number of musicians in a duo setting, including Robbert van Hulzen (Rara Avis), Alfredo Genovesi, and Jorrit Dijkstra.

Terri is the recipient of numerous awards and prizes. She is currently on her second long-term residency at The Banff Centre, working on new compositions for Luciane Cardassi, Trio Scordatura and the David Kweksilber Big Band. She lives and works in Amsterdam.
