The Harlem String Quartet makes its Vineyard debut on Monday and Tuesday, July 20 and 21, as part of the summer concert series of the Martha’s Vineyard Chamber Music Society.

In 8 p.m. concerts Monday at the Old Whaling Church and Tuesday at the Chilmark Community Center, the quartet will perform music by Joachin Turina, Maurice Ravel, Wynton Marsalis and Billy Strayhorn.

Violinists Ilmar Gavilan and Melissa White, violist Juan-Miguel Hernandez and cellist Desmond Neysmith made their debut together as the Harlem Quartet in the fall of 2006, performing at Carnegie Hall in New York and winning top honors in the annual Sphinx Competition.

Mr. Gavilan is currently concertmaster of the Philadelphia Virtuosi Chamber Orchestra and is on the faculty at the Juilliard School. Ms. White has appeared as soloist with many of the nation’s leading orchestras including the Boston Pops and the symphonies of Cleveland, Atlanta, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Detroit, Colorado, New Jersey, Cincinnati and San Antonio.

Mr. Hernandez, a native of Canada, is a first prize winner at the National Canadian Music Competition, the Sillery Music Competition and the Clermont-Pepin Music Competition. Mr. Neysmith has appeared as a soloist with the New York Philharmonic and symphony orchestras in Atlanta, Baltimore, Hartford, Louisiana and Florida as well as with La Orquesta Sinaloa de las Artes in Culiacan, Mexico, where he currently holds the co-principal chair.
