“Formed in 2011, the Villiers Quartet have performed live on BBC Radio 3 as part of the Leamington International String Quartet Series and performed at numerous festivals and halls. The quartet has been invited to present masterclasses at Dartmouth College, Syracuse University, Sherborne School, Nottingham High School, and the University of Nottingham.”
