Formed by Undergraduates at the University of Cambridge in 2004, the Harris Quartet is fast becoming recognised as an ensemble of rare distinction. As a Quartet, they have studied and participated in masterclasses with the Endellion, Dante, Maggini and Medici Quartets, and all the members have since gone on to pursue careers as professional musicians at the highest level. They perform extensively throughout the UK, as well as regular recitals in partnership with Michaelhouse Centre in Cambridge. The Quartet is currently running a series of concerts with guest artists, having recently performed Schubert's String Quintet in C, and the Larsson Trombone Concertino.
