Described by The Strad as giving 'passionate performances that combine technical accomplishment with interpretative flair', the leading young Heath Quartet is rapidly emerging as an exciting voice on the international chamber music scene. The quartet performs regularly at Wigmore Hall, where future engagements include complete cycles of both the Tippett and Bartók quartets. This year the Heath Quartet will make their debut at Carnegie Hall as part of a USA tour, return to perform at the Concertgebouw and Louvre, appear onstage in Calixto Beieto's Fidelio at the London Coliseum, and tour Mexico.

Their lovely, meaty programme for Dartington includes some of the greatest quartet repertoire ever written, including Tchaikovsky’s gorgeously romantic first quartet.

Haydn Quartet in G major Op.76 No.1
