Australian String Quartet and the Central Conservatory of Music (Beijing) Collaboration

In 2017, The Australian String Quartet and the Central Conservatory of Music (Beijing) partnered through a University of Adelaide collaboration. Over a 2-week period, the Australian String Quartet worked with visiting student string musicians from the Central Conservatory of Music, Beijing—China’s most prestigious music school.

The 2-week exchange culminated in a public concert held with both the ASQ and the Chinese student quartet. The program included string quartet and octet works by Mendelssohn, Beethoven, Bartók, Schubert and Ross Edwards.
