Intérprete: Wihan Quartet

Star performers and a smart program offer an insightful look at a neglected composer.

The Wihan Quartet reinforce their reputation as top interpreters of Dvořák at the Bradfield Festival.

The Wihan Quartet was formed in 1985 in Czechoslovakia. Since then they have developed an impressive international career, often visiting the UK and being broadcast on its airwaves. Among their achievements is a published recording of Dvořák’s String Quartet no. 11, and it was this recording, not their continued and celebrated presence in the UK, that first brought them to my attention.
