The Boscobel Quartet

The Boscobel Quartet

Violins, viola, cello

Four friends with a shared passion for the golden age of the string quartet, the Boscobelles are respected period instrumentalists with a collective wealth of international performing experience. When the opportunity arose to draw this together in a chamber ensemble, they leapt at it. Since their London debut in 2016, they have given performances across the UK, garnering repeat invitations at each venue. The quartet delivers spoken introductions that seek to invite the audience into the soundworld that the composers themselves would have known. Fee from £1,000 Lunchtime fee £1,000 Full fee £1,500
