The Tippett Quartet have performed and broadcast throughout the UK, Europe, Canada and Mexico, and their broad and diverse repertoire highlights the ensemble’s unique versatility.
They have an impressive catalogue of recordings and have given numerous world and UK premieres. They released a recording of the Penderecki Quartets (Naxos 8.574288) which was described as ‘life-enhancing’ by The Times, and they were awarded Gramophone magazine’s Recording of the Month for their recording of Górecki’s String Quartet No. 3 (Naxos 8.574110). They have collaborated with composer/soundscape artist Matthew Herbert on a reimagining of Beethoven’s Op. 135 and have performed with the Royal Ballet.
In 2011 the quartet celebrated the anniversary of the iconic film composer Bernard Herrmann with a series of concerts and radio broadcasts, and can be heard as featured artists on the films Knives Out and Glass Onion.
They are delighted to be celebrating their 25th anniversary with the release of the complete Korngold Quartets for Naxos recorded at School Farm Studios.
