We are delighted to welcome two string quartets to Ikon Arts Management.
Talich Quartet
Founded in 1964, the Talich Quartet remains an emblem of the finest Czech musical tradition with international performances at the finest concert halls and chamber music festivals. In the 1990s, a shift in generations occurred in the quartet, which brought in a fresh lease of life to the ensemble while maintaining its rich heritage in concert and recording activities.
“Few prominent chamber ensembles can boast such a long-standing pedigree as the Talich Quartet…Their playing is both considered and affectionate, but rises to remarkable heights” BBC Music Magazine

Ragazze Quartet
With attractive and unconventional programmes, the Ragazze Quartet has come to be one of the most fresh and leading voices in the world of classical music. In adventurous productions of their own, they address socially relevant themes such as climate, the history of slavery, mourning and feminism. The Quartet is inspired by the richness of sound from different cultures which opens up the string quartet genre, rooted in Western tradition, to new sounds and approaches.
Ikon Arts Management represents the Ragazze in the UK
