Formed in 2011, The Castalian Quartet is rapidly emerging as an exciting voice on the international chamber music scene. In 2018 they won the prestigious, inaugural Merito String Quartet Award & Valentin Erben Prize and a Borletti-Buitoni Trust Fellowship Award. Their engagements this season include performances of the complete Haydn Op. 76 Quartets at Wigmore Hall, and concerts in the Tel Aviv Museum of Art, Heidelberger Frühling Festival, Zwischentöne Festival in Engelberg and Banff Festival in Canada, as well as tours throughout China and Colombia.
