About

A versatile cellist and champion of current music, Maria Hadge has been described as a “stunning” and “brilliant” musician, performing with a natural spunk. Her playing has taken her around the globe, working with early-career and master composers. A resident of Brooklyn, NY, Hadge is an active freelance musician who feels equally at home with contemporary music, free improvisation, and musical theater. 

Miss Hadge performs as a core member of Ensemble Mise-En, which regularly promotes works by emerging composers, participates in residencies and festivals around the world, and collaborates with established composers.

As a founding member of Spira Duo, Hadge commissions and develops music for contrabass flute and cello along with flutist Kelley Barnett. 

Outside of performing, Hadge enjoys running, baking bread, and embroidering. She is available for private lessons.
