Winner of the 2019 St Martin-in-the-Fields Chamber Music Competition, the Brompton Quartet was formed in 2018 at the Royal College of Music and has performed extensively around the UK, making debuts at major London concert venues including the Wigmore Hall, Kings Place, and the Southbank Centre. The string quartet’s debut album traces a musical journey through almost a millennium of music by six female composers – Hildegard von Bingen, Jessie Montgomery, Dobrinka Tabakova, Grażyna Bacewicz, Barbara Strozzi, and Isidora Žebeljan. “The six pieces on our album speak to one another in the way stars form a constellation – separate, yet connected,” says cellist Wallis Power. “Each one is self-contained, but together they tell a larger story of women in music.”
