Now in its third decade the Endellion String Quartet has become renowned as one of the finest quartets in the world, with a repertoire of over 250 pieces ranging from Purcell to Thomas Ades. Their concerts are regularly sold out, everywhere "setting the audience ablaze" (Daily Telegraph) and they "play to each other with a sense almost of discovery, communicating to the audience on a level of unusual intimacy" (The Guardian). Their schedule includes regular tours of North and South America and concerts in Australasia, the Far East and every West European country. The quartet frequently visits such important musical centres as Amsterdam, Stockholm, Paris, Frankfurt, Cologne, Berlin, Munich, Zurich, Geneva, Salzburg, Barcelona and Rome.

In Britain the quartet has appeared at nearly all the major series and festivals and is broadcast reguarly on BBC radio and television. The quartet has been Quartet in Residence at the University of Cambridge since 1992, and has undertaken two prestigious short term residencies at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the US.
