About the artist Lindsays

The Lindsays or The Lindsay String Quartet were founded in 1965. They formed at the Royal Academy of Music and take their name from Lord Lindsay, Vice-Chancellor of Keele University where the Quartet was first resident. After 6 years at Sheffield University it became Quartet-in-Residence at Manchester University. They established themselves as one of the world's foremost string quartets. Their interpretations are rooted in the European tradition of great quartet-playing, handed down by such as the Busch and Vegh Quartets, and the intensity, spontaneity and communicative power of The Lindsays' performances have made them favourites with audiences throughout the world. In 2005, after 39 years in existence and 20 years since the last change of members, the quartet announced their intended retirement in the following year. They then performed a very successful series of farewell concerts throughout the world, culminating in four final concerts in their home town of Sheffield in July 2005. Individual members are now pursuing separate musical ideas.
