Goldner String Quartet (Delegate)

Music in the Regions in partnership with Delegate School of Arts Festival present Goldner String Quartet.

Join Goldner String Quartet as they share their Innermost Thoughts. With a career spanning almost 30 years, the quartet has decided to hang up their bows, but not before sharing some of their favourite works. In a thought-provoking program, featuring compositions by Mozart, Shostakovich, and Schubert audiences will get an insight into the intimate thoughts of some of the greatest minds in history.

Celebrating its 30th and Final Concert Season in 2024, the Goldner String Quartet has long-standing recognition as not only Australia's pre-eminent string quartet, but as an ensemble of international significance, favourably compared with the best in the world.

The Quartet launched in 1995 and has retained all founding members for its almost 30-year history. The musicians are well known to Australian and international audiences through their performances and recordings and for their concurrent membership of the Australia Ensemble at UNSW. All members have occupied principal positions in organisations such as the Sydney Symphony Orchestra and Australian Chamber Orchestra.

Unanimous audience and critical acclaim following their London debut at Wigmore Hall in 1997 ensured the Goldner Quartet's invitations to prestigious UK and European festivals. Performances in the USA and throughout Asia have followed, in addition to several tours of New Zealand.
