Awarded First Prize at the 9th Banff International String Quartet Competition in 2007 and the Grand Prize at the Australian Chamber Music Competition in 2005, the TinAlley String Quartet (TASQ) has established itself as one of Australia’s brightest chamber music ensembles. The quartet has studied at the Banff Centre for the Arts, Canada; International Musicians Seminar, Prussia Cove, United Kingdom; Norfolk Chamber Music Festival as part of the Yale Summer School of Music; St. Lawrence String Quartet Chamber Music Seminar at Stanford University and in 2006 was based at the Australian National Academy of Music as “Visiting Young Artists.”

TASQ has been mentored by many of the world’s finest quartets, including the Tokyo, St. Lawrence and Keller String Quartets and has worked closely with many of Australia and Europe’s finest musicians. TASQ has appeared in the Australian National Academy of Music Virtuosi Series; Sydney House Music Series; Melbourne International Arts Festival; Macedon Music Series; Musica Viva Coffee Concert Series; Musica Viva Countrywide Program, Port Fairy Music Festival; Elder Hall Lunchtime Recital Series; and in regional centers in Victoria and NSW.
