Utrecht String Quartet

The Utrecht String Quartet's work combines the core string quartet repertoire with a sustained interest in lesser-known works. Its discography reflects this dual focus, balancing established masterpieces with rediscoveries from the European musical heritage. Released in 2026, the album Frank Martin: Chamber Music, recorded with pianist Ilona Timchenko, exemplifies this approach by bringing together the composer's Piano Quintet, String Trio, and String Quartet, offering an overview of different stages of his creative output. The ensemble's membership as of 2026 consisted of violinists Eeva Koskinen and Katherine Routley, violist Mikhail Zemtsov, and cellist Sebastian Koloski.
