The Sirius Quartet

The Sirius string quartet was born from the frequent collaboration of four musicians from the Nord-Pas de Calais region for various concerts and other cultural events. The desire to work together on the string quartet repertoire arose naturally and obviously.

The shared taste for the same musical periods, for the same composers and the same concern for perfection, research and progress have been rich assets in the establishment and recognition of this string ensemble.

The main goal of this musical initiative is to promote a wide repertoire in the Northern Region of France and in Belgium, both for "traditional" concerts and in various more unusual venues (nurseries, schools, hospitals, prisons, senior residences) in order to make music accessible to as many people as possible.

The Sirius Quartet balances and diversifies its programs to appeal to a wide audience. It readily introduces new composers and develops projects combining dance with music, film, poetry, or even circus arts.

All these elements give real dynamism to this young ensemble which, beyond its sharing and musical generosity, takes above all great pleasure in being in the spotlight.
