New in its style and unique in its instrumentation, the Silk String Quartet is an exciting professional Chinese string group based in the UK. The Quartet profiles four classically trained virtuosi rich in Chinese and Western musical experience and with international reputations. The Silk String Quartet plays new music – some specially commissioned – as well as their own interpretations of traditional pieces. They also enjoy experimental and collaborative projects across a range of musical cultures. Their debut performance was well received in April 2006 at the Royal Academy of Arts during the “China – the Three Emperors” exhibition (see picture). Established in 2006, the Quartet has been invited to shine on the prestigious stages of world music at WOMEX 2006 (www.womex.com) in Spain, and at WOMAD 2007 (www.womad.org) both in the UK and in Gran Canaria. In addition to performing widely in Europe (Holland, Germany, France, Spain and Ireland), the Quartet’s UK appearances have included such venues as London’s Royal Opera House, Southbank Centre and Duke’s Hall, St George’s in Bristol and the Manchester, Brighton and Guildford Festivals.
