Barber’s Adagio @KingsPlace last week….written when Barber was only 26 years old, he became an overnight sensation after its first broadcast in 1938 with Toscanini

[Piatti Quartet @PiattiQuartet]

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review @bachtrack
Thank you so much ❤️

“The exquisite Nocturne was similarly honoured by wonderful playing….Borodin’s enchanting extensions of his melody were made for string playing, and hand-overs between players, of such skill and feeling”

[Piatti Quartet @PiattiQuartet]

Did you catch us on @BBCInTune yesterday? And ❤️ for repeat of Tchaikovsky performance this morning! Talking all things @JosephPhibbs, @KingsPlace 13th Feb and ‘la Bonne chanson’ @hyperionrecords later this month with @nickythespence @juliusdrake @BBCRadio3

“…they master these challenges with technical finesse and deepening verve in their performance..intensively explore and present the life-affirming and sometimes downright lively movements.. lyrical warmth and rich playing.”

Picked up a willing chamber music partner as long as we only play ‘Ludwig’

🤩🤩🤩

[Piatti Quartet @PiattiQuartet]

As this is a slightly ominous week for obvious reasons, we thought we’d share this happy headline in @GramophoneMag

The SQ genre in 2024 is thriving!! Especially in the hands of @JosephPhibbs

🙌 amazing new quartets 2-4 out now 💿❤️

Beautiful review that goes to the very essence of our upcoming release of @JosephPhibbs Quartets!

‘If you like the music of Valentin Silvestrov, Arvo Pärt or Marjan Mozetich, be reassured: you are on a related pilgrimage with these works.’

Still in shock that @philipglass liked one of our tweets last month! We’ve been preparing Qtet No.2, ‘Company’ this week and can’t wait to perform it on 9th October @KingsPlace

Could you go one further and retweet for your London supporters possibly?!
