The Brodsky Quartet was formed in 1972 by cellist Jacqueline Thomas and violinist Ian Belton when they were just 10 and 11 years old.
- Krysia Osostowicz, violin
- Paul Cassidy, viola
- Ian Belton, violin
- Jacqueline Thomas, cello
The group has since performed over 3000 concerts on the major stages of the world and released more than 60 recordings. A natural curiosity and insatiable desire to explore has propelled the players in many artistic directions, and continues to ensure them a place at the very forefront of the international chamber music scene.
The Quartet brings a programme featuring music by Stravinsky, alongside Shostakovich’s mighty String Quartet No.5 and also Beethoven’s String Quartet No.13, with its beautiful Cavatina movement. The evening will undoubtedly be greatly anticipated; the musicians have a remarkable reputation for their interpretations, particularly of the quartets of Beethoven and Shostakovich.
“… playing with a spirit so transformational you felt they were actually improving the world.” – The Strad
