UKARIA: Cuarteto Quiroga
5 October 2025 @ 2:30 pm - 4:30 pm AEDT

The ‘exquisite’ and ‘interpretatively fresh’ (New York Times) Cuarteto Quiroga celebrated its twentieth anniversary in 2023 and now makes its UKARIA debut. The quartet has become a staple of the European and North American chamber music landscape and is renowned for its distinctive musical personality and charismatic music-making. Cuarteto Quiroga’s extensive discography spans Haydn to Kurtág, and its members are passionate advocates for contemporary string quartet repertoire, regularly collaborating with celebrated composers such as Jörg Widmann and Peter Eötvös. Cuarteto Quiroga’s players speak of their fascination with the string quartet repertoire as a response to music that ‘combines audacity, intelligence, wit and poetry, where the greatest composers, since 1760 until our time, have poured their most bold, experimental, honest and intimate musical discourses.’
