FQ in Finland in 2015, standing in front of Sibelius’ home, ‘Ainola’. FQ was invited to Finland to perform the complete works for string quartet by Jean Sibelius.

FQ with Dame Elisabeth Murdoch AC, DBE in 2003. Dame Elisabeth was a cherished patron of the quartet and we have always felt her presence. (Especially while playing Mozart)

FQ in Finland with Folke Gräsbeck, pianist and recognised Sibelius authority. The pink house in the background was the summer vacation place of Sibelius, and is the home of the Sibelius Festival Korpo.

FQ at the Craven Creek Chamber Music Festival in 2017. A festival that epitomises FQ’s spirit of taking chamber music everywhere and anywhere, FQ performed Schubert in a packed out shed.
