Free On Fridays - Holtág Quartet
Advertisement
No less than three of our tutors - Ivan Illingworth, Paris Rizas Pintzopoulos and Virág Hevizi - will be performing with The Holtág Quartet; a dynamic string quartet with a repertoire spanning classical and contemporary works, from Haydn, Beethoven, and Ravel, to Crumb, Maconchy, and Glass. Shortly after their formation, the quartet was selected to pilot the Ensemble Pathways course at Trinity Laban under a full scholarship provided by Philip Carne MBE – a specialist chamber music diploma.
They have performed at notable venues including Wigmore Hall, Queen’s House (Royal Museums Greenwich), the Painted Hall, and for the Hungarian Consulate in Manchester, and appear regularly across London. Upcoming engagements include performances at the Lighthouse in Poole, the Polish Hearth, and the University Women’s Club. Within their first year, the Holtág Quartet were finalists in the 2025 Cavatina Intercollegiate Competition, recipients of the Sir John Barbirolli Prize for String Quartets at Trinity Laban, and made their debut on BBC Radio 3 In Tune. The quartet has received coaching from Malcolm Johnston of the LSO, the Carducci and Piatti Quartets, and the Linos Piano Trio.
All ages are welcome, including babies and children. Entry is free with no need to book and there is an optional retiring collection at the end - all donations go directly to the performers. These concerts are, quite understandably, very popular! Please arrive promptly to avoid disappointment - we may not be able to admit latecomers. We also may not have room for buggies - please use our buggy park. Running time is usually 45-60 mins.
