In demand since its formation in 2016, the Victoria String Quartet has gone on to perform for chamber music societies and festivals throughout the UK and has been praised for its detailed and thoughtful performances at venues including Kendal (Lake District Summer Music), Pinner and Buxton Festivals, London, Manchester (Bridgewater, RNCM and Stoller halls), north Norfolk, north and west Wales and the Scottish Borders.

Enthusiasts for lost and undiscovered works, in 2022 the Quartet gave the first public performances of Elgar’s Six Fragments for String Quartet and are looking forward to recording them in 2026. They also enjoy sharing the concert platform with eminent colleagues such as the quartet, Quatuor Danel, Peter Hewitt and Irina Andrievsky (piano), Leo Popplewell (cello), Leon Bosch, (bass) and John Bradbury, (clarinet).

Committed to inspiring the next generation of chamber musicians, in 2025, the quartet began an association with the talented instrumentalists of Norwich School, whilst in Manchester they were the quartet in residence for the inaugural composition competition hosted by Manchester Mid-day Concerts Society.
