The members of the Quartet met in 1987 at the Royal Academy of Music. Their aim has always been to develop the guitar as a chamber music instrument. To achieve this they have commissioned new repertoire from prominent composers and arranged their own transcribed repertoire. The Quartet has a unique instrumentation using Treble and Bass classical guitars on parts 1 and 4, with standard classical guitars on parts 2 and 3. They have performed widely in the UK and abroad and have made several recordings and broadcasts.
