Founded originally in 1953, the Allegri String Quartet has played a key role in the British chamber music scene. Its members have worked with composers such as Benjamin Britten, Michael Tippett, Elizabeth Maconchy, James MacMillan, and most recently Alec Roth, resulting in new commissions and recordings. The Quartet recently recorded the Beethoven Opus 18 quartets on the Vivat label, receiving a double 5 star review and chamber music disc of the month accolade from BBC Music Magazine.

“The Allegri play intensely, but also gracefully; they know when to give the music space.”
