Founded in 2011 Cordia String Quartet, With a name derived from the Latin Cordia (hearts) and phonetical Maltese overtones of Korda (strings), the vision of Cordia Quartet is to create for its audience the ambience of concordance in musical harmony and within the four different string instruments of the quartet.
