***NEW*** Listen to recent live performances by the Allegri Quartet

The Allegri Quartet is Britain's longest-running chamber music ensemble, sustained over six decades by successive generations of the finest international performers. Their reputation for distinctive and stimulating interpretations is rooted in tradition yet alive to contemporary trends.

A commitment to refreshing the repertoire has led the Allegris to give more than 60 world premières since 1964, including specially commissioned pieces by leading composers such as James MacMillan, Colin Matthews and, most recently, Anthony Payne.

The Allegri Quartet also plays a key role in training the next generation of string and chamber music players, and enjoys long-standing teaching residencies at the universities of Durham, Nottingham, Bangor, Middlesex and the University of East Anglia.
