I love this quartet. I attended many times their concert at the Reid Concert Hall in Edinburgh. They are highly qualified musicians and they have sometimes guest performers that are as qualified as them. I usually attended "lunch time concerts" which last around one hour and were free of charge due to the sponsoring of Edinburgh University. It is such a good way to democratise the classical music. Edinburgh is definitely a town of affordable culture. For example concerts at Usher Hall were free for young people under 16. I found that such a good way for young people to discover classical music in a beautiful venue.
