Nicholas Daniel founded the Britten Oboe Quartet together with his colleagues
and co-principals of the award-winning Britten Sinfonia; they all bring to this
ensemble not only the highest musical standards but also the experience of
playing together over many years, resulting in warm, expressive and above all
enjoyable playing. They perform music of the highest quality and explore
lesser-known works both from Britain and from abroad, as well as standard classics
such as Mozart’s oboe quartet. The quartet has been heard up and down the UK,
from Aberdeen to the Gregynog Festival in Wales, Swaledale and Wimbledon
Festivals, Oxford, Manchester, Cambridge, and at Wigmore Hall and Kings Place in
London. Most recently they have toured internationally to the Netherlands,
Germany and Sweden.
