Consone Quartet
Founded in 1999 with the aim of promoting and nurturing some of the world's finest young musicians at the start of their international careers, the scheme has since gone from strength to strength and now numbers well over 100 distinguished alumni, including Alice Coote, Paul Lewis, Alison Balsom, Alban Gerhardt, Igor Levit, and many more. Membership of the scheme is for a period of just over two years, during which time the NGAs give concerts, make studio recordings, work with the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ orchestras, and appear at some of the UK's most prestigious festivals, including for many the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Proms.
