Flinders Quartet (FQ) is instantly recognisable as one of Australia’s most loved and highly respected chamber music ensembles, whose purpose is to challenge and champion the role of the string quartet in 21st century Australia.

For over twenty years, FQ has followed a unique path and lives up to their motto of “caring for tradition, daring to be different” through a busy schedule encompassing live and online performances, commissioning, recording, education and mentorship programs including the celebrated composer development programs ‘Ascend’ and ‘Emerge’, and outreach activities through their artistic patronage of John Noble’s Itet regional quartet program, Resonance String Orchestra, and Musica Viva’s Strike a Chord championship.

This is the R.A.G. and Katherine Holmes Tribute Concert.
