A chance for composers of all ages and backgrounds to meet the Solem Quartet, and delve into the contemporary string quartet world!

Following on from the success of the first workshop in January 2021, the Solem Quartet host ‘Writing for Quartet’ workshop #2, as part of their ongoing celebration of groundbreaking string quartet writing. ‘Writing for Quartet’ is a strand of the Quartet’s Beethoven Bartok Now series.

Composers of all ages, levels, and backgrounds are encouraged to join the Solem Quartet for a Zoom meeting – please spread the word! We will be taking questions, demonstrating techniques, and performing short excerpts of submitted works. In addition to this, we will also be delving into the detail of one of the great contemporary music quartets, Thomas Ades’ The Four Quarters.

This is a free online Zoom event – but reserving a free ticket is essential. The Zoom link will become available just before the event.
