Formed in 2003, The Iuventus quartet has been hailed be the Irish Times
as “startling” – “Theirs was a purely musical approach –
bracing, fearless and utterly engaging.”
The Strad wrote of their “technical
ease, sensitivity to style, elegance in phrasing and excellent intonation” and
hailed their rendition of Janacek’s First Quartet as “powerfully communicated”. They have performed at venues
throughout the UK, at the 2003- 2006 Chichester Festivities, and at the National
Concert Hall in Dublin. The Iuventus Quartet was chosen for the Countess of
Munster Recital Scheme and played at music societies throughout the country in
the 2006 season. In
another recent review, the Iuventus were described as “spellbinding”,
bringing to the music “great expertise,
dedication and superb musicianship”. The quartet has also played at
the Buxton Festival, the Cambridge Summer Recital Series and St
Martin-in-the-Fields, London. In 2008 they performed in Jakarta, Indonesia and
Bangkok, Thailand and went on to give workshops to Burmese orphans in the
refugee camps on the Thai-Burma border.
