Since 1985, the Australian String Quartet (ASQ) has created unforgettable string quartet performances for audiences around the world. The ASQ is Dale Barltrop (violin), Francesca Hiew (violin), Christopher Cartlidge (viola) and Michael Dahlenburg (cello).

Dedicated to musical excellence with a distinctly Australian flavour, they aim to create chemistry and amplify intimacy through experiences that connect people with string quartet repertoire.

From their home base at the University of Adelaide, they reach out across the world to engage people with an outstanding program of performances, workshops, digital content, commissions and education projects.

Their distinct sound is enhanced by a matched set of 18th century Guadagnini instruments, handcrafted by Giovanni Battista Guadagnini between c.1743 and 1784 in Turin and Piacenza, Italy. These precious instruments are on loan for their exclusive use through the generosity of UKARIA.

Australian String Quartet will perform on the 31st January at 14:15 and on the 1st February at 20:15 in the Grote Zaal of the Muziekgebouw aan ’t IJ and on the 2nd February at 09:30 in the Kleine Zaal of the Muziekgebouw aan ’t IJ.
