FRANKLAND QUARTET

In 2019 The Frankland Quartet became Quartet-in-Residence at Durham University, leading workshops and coaching for the university's student ensembles, performing student compositions, and giving recitals for the university's Musicon concert series, most recently of Ravel, Tippett and Medekšaite in April 2021... Formed in 2017, the Frankland Quartet's musical identity is embedded in the North East of England. Long-time colleagues in Royal Northern Sinfonia, the region's professional chamber orchestra, all four of its members base their careers in the North East, and a deep commitment to the cultural life of the area lies at the heart of the Quartet's work, inspired by its landscape, its history and communities.
