Endellion String Quartet
Andrew Watkinson - Violins, Garfield Jackson - Viola, Ralph de Souza - Violins, David Waterman - Cello
Since bursting onto the scene over 30 years ago The Endellion String Quartet
has become one of the finest Quartets in the world.
During this time their exciting schedule has included tours as far and wide as North and South America, Australasia, the Far East, the Middle East, South Africa and every West European country.
In Britain the quartet is a regular feature on BBC radio and television; they have appeared at the Proms, and have been featured in the week-long programmes 'Artist of the Week' and 'Artists in Focus'. The quartet's 1987 recording for EMI of the complete string chamber music of Britten was the most highly recommended version in Radio 3's Record Review. In 1998 EMI released 'Arcadiana', the Endellion String Quartet's commission from Thomas Adés, on a disc that subsequently received the 'Editor's Choice' award in the 1998 Gramophone Awards.
