Grass Roots

The 2026 festival edition features many talented young string quartets. In the program section Grass Roots, the String Quartet Biennale Amsterdam presents three promising quartets. The winners of the top string quartet competitions are on hand with a program in which they stylishly convey their character as string quartets. With an inventive take on the repertoire and with their awareness of past and present, they represent the youngest generation of string quartets.

The winners of the Trondheim International Chamber Music Competition, the Banff International String Quartet Competition and the Wigmore Hall International String Quartet Competition will be announced during this year.
