The Talland Quartet

The Talland Quartet 

Formed during their time at the Royal Northern College of Music, The Talland Quartet are dedicated to sharing their passion for chamber music with others. Named after the serene yet wild Talland Bay in Cornwall, the quartet won multiple prizes during their time at the RNCM and are currently continuing their studies there as part of the Quartet Studio programme. They were the Young String Quartet in Residence at South Downs Summer Music Festival in 2025 and look forward to attending West Cork Music Festival in 2026 as Young Artists.

The Quartet enjoys a diverse range of projects, from supporting Anna Meredith at Manchester International Festival to delivering primary school workshops in the North of England. They are keen to support the creation of new music and are currently working on a commission with composer and drummer Eden Longson, which has been generously supported by the Nicholas Boas Charitable Trust.

They have performed at concert societies and festivals across the UK and have enjoyed trips further afield for the Danish String Quartet Academy and Delft Chamber Music Atelier.

The Quartet have been fortunate to study with esteemed musicians such as Donald Grant, Pavel Fischer, Cecily Ward, Tim Frederiksen and Alice Neary.
