Musicians of the NZSQ
The NZSQ is made up of four talented musicians who are all dedicated performers and mentors to students across the country. The three longest-serving members of the Quartet, Helene, Rolf and Gillian, have each been awarded the MNZM (Member of the New Zealand Order of Merit) honour for services to music in New Zealand. Read on to get to know them.
Instruments of the NZSQ
The instruments of the NZSQ span the complete golden age of Italian violin making, from the Amati family in Cremona who standardised the style of violin that we know today and taught their skills to luthiers such as Antonio Stradavarius, through to Storioni, considered the last of the great Venetian school of Luthiers.
