Formed in 2013 while studying at Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance, the Camilli String Quartet were the winners of the Trinity Laban John Barbirolli Competition 2015, and were also awarded a place on the Richard Carne Chamber Mentorship Scheme 2015-16. The quartet is made up of experienced chamber and solo musicians, who all held individual scholarships at Trinity Laban. They have performed at venues around the UK including Kensington Palace, the Old Royal Naval College Chapel, Farnham Maltings, opening of Madhurst Arts Festival, Benslow Music Trust and the Wigmore Hall. Following a recent successful tour of Scotland, the quartet have a number of concerts lined up for 2017. Both of the violins in the quartet are made by English maker Roger Hansell, the viola is by Masa Inokuchi, and the cello is a Benjamin Banks generously loaned to Olivia by Trinity Laban Conservatoire. The quartet perform regular recitals, as well as school workshops, recording sessions and at weddings and events.
