The Australian String Quartet is pleased to announce its National Season 2016 featuring the much-anticipated debut of its new line-up: violinists Dale Barltrop and Francesca Hiew; violist Stephen King; and cellist Sharon Draper.

The ASQ’s National Season 2016 program of three concerts heralds an exciting new era for this significant Australian ensemble, which celebrated its 30th Anniversary this year.

We invite you to join us on our journey as we delve into the masterworks of Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Schumann and Mendelssohn, juxtaposed with exciting contemporary Australian works by Hindson and Chindamo, and some of the 20th century’s finest contributions to string quartet literature – Ravel, Webern, Bartók and Ligeti. This season promises to be a feast for quartet lovers and newcomers alike.
