Lunchbreak Concert: Opus13 - Aberdeen Art Gallery

This concert has an extended duration of 60 minutes and will be recorded for broadcast on BBC Radio 3 as part of the BBC’s New Generation Artists programme.

First Prize winners at both the 2025 Wigmore Hall International String Quartet Competition and the Bordeaux International String Quartet Competition, Opus13 is rapidly building a reputation on the international chamber music scene.

Named after Mendelssohn’s youthful and passionate A Minor Quartet, Op. 13 - the first piece they ever played together - the quartet was formed in Oslo in 2014 by four teenagers eager to dive into the world of string quartets. Opus13 comprises Norwegian violinists Sonoko Miriam Welde and Edvard Erdal, violist Albin Uusijärvi and cellist Daniel Thorell, both from Sweden.
