Welcome to The Mavron Quartet Website
The Mavron Quartet is Wales’ leading String Quartet.
In 2010 it was appointed
as the first Ensemble in Residence at the National Concert Hall of
Wales, St David’s Hall, Cardiff.
Undertaking a variety of work including
recitals, session, outreach and educational work, the quartet is always
keen to pursue
new projects.
To mark the Mavron Quartet’s 10th Anniversary, the quartet has recently been awarded funding from the Arts Council of Wales, Tŷ Cerdd and the PRS for Music Foundation. This Mavron Quartet 10th Anniversary Project will include performances of commissioned works by Welsh composers Rhian Samuel and Gareth Wood and a storytelling collaboration with Liz Wier and composer Ian Stephens. These performances will take place in 2012-2013 in the UK.
Mission Statement
The Mavron Quartet is committed to presenting regular recitals to the highest artistic level, offering innovative programming by combining mainstream repertoire with contemporary works.
Collaboration is a strong ethos of the quartet; exploring the boundaries and fusions of elements in the different art forms and working with other leading artists in their field.
Based in Wales, the Mavron Quartet is passionate about working within communities and making live music accessible to all, keen to inspire the growth of musical appreciation and enjoyment.
