Praised for their “immaculate precision and spirit” (The Strad) and “cultured tone” (Arts Desk), the Solem Quartet has established itself as one of the most innovative and adventurous quartets of its generation.

The Quartet released their first recording ‘Painted Light’ for the Delphian label in October 2023. The CD, of 20th century and contemporary music linked by light, shade and perspective, received excellent reviews in the press.

In this concert the Solem Quartet combine their own arrangements of works by Nadia and Lili Boulanger with a Quartet commissioned from Edmund Finnis in 2022 and the well-known Dvorak American Quartet.

“Finnis writes music of a rare, refined beauty.”
Anthony Friend in the Painted Light CD notes
