About the artist Brodsky Qt

Brodsky Qt

The Brodsky Quartet are at the forefront of the international chamber-music scene. Their love and mastery of the traditional string quartet repertoire is evident from their highly acclaimed performances of composers ranging from Haydn, Beethoven, Schubert and Tchaikovsky to Shostakovich, Bartok, Britten and Respighi, as well as from their extensive, award-winning discography.

At the same time, the Quartet are known for their pioneering work with a diverse range of performing artists, from singers Elvis Costello, Anne Sofie von Otter and Björk, to Complicite Theatre Company and Icelandic poet Sjon, while their many collaborations with distinguished composers, including John Tavener, Lutoslawski, Peter Sculthorpe, Django Bates, Sally Beamish, Dave Brubeck and Julian Nott, have given them an unrivalled opportunity to influence and inspire some of the newest work for string quartet.

The Brodsky Quartet is named after the Russian violinist Adolf Brodsky, who played an important role in musical life in Manchester and at the Royal Northern College where the quartet studied.

Daniel Rowland plays a violin made by Lorenzo Storioni of Cremona in 1793; Ian Belton’s violin is by Gio. Paolo Maggini c.1615 and Jacqueline Thomas plays a cello made by Thomas Perry in 1785. Paul Cassidy’s viola is by Francesco Guissani of Milano, 1843, courtesy of the Britten Trust.
