Once again we welcome the quartet that won the Wigmore Hall International String Quartet Competition. ‘Style, energy, and a sense of risk ……. These four young Frenchmen made the music smile, and would have made Beethoven do the same’, noted the Observer after the Quatuor Van Kuijk emerged as winners in March 2015. This was the latest in a string of successes that mark the rapid rise of this group which formed only in 2012.
