Winner of the St. Martin’s Chamber Music Competition, Tunnell Trust Award, and selected as Park Lane Group Young Artist 2009–2010, the Piatti Quartet is fast emerging as one of the UK’s leading young string quartets.
Over the last year they have enjoyed exciting collaboration projects with Austrian pianist Gottlieb Wallisch and clarinettists Emma Johnson and Sarah Williamson as well as a successful second year of their own Piatti Chamber Music Festival at Kingsand. The Quartet made their Wigmore Hall debut in February 2011 and returned for a second very successful concert there in April 2012.

The joy of playing, the powerful impact the quartet makes on stage and the fresh approach to familiar repertoire has become a trademark of the Danish String Quartet. These qualities have led to success everywhere: the quartet became the NORDMETALL–Ensemble Prize Winner 2010, was awarded the highly prestigious Carl Nielsen Prize 2011, and, this year, has been awarded the rare accolade of a three–year residency by the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center New York. “The Quartet bring a freshness and energy plus a level of sheer accomplishment that I don’t ever remember hearing in these works.” |
