Arditti

The name Arditti has been synonymous with new music since the quartet was formed in 1974. Based in London, the ensemble performs up to thirty new pieces a year, almost all of it the work of living composers.

All members of the group are acclaimed soloists in their own right, and there is an Australian connection to second violinist Graeme Jennings, who studied at the Queensland Conservatorium of Music. The group has made over fifty recordings, a number of which have won international prizes, including the Grand Prix du Disque and the International Record Critics' Award.

'It is not easy to recall a more impressive evening of quartet playing, in whatever repertory.' NEW YORK TIMES
