“Weithaas plays with vigour and power, als well as a willingness to stop and smell the flowers along the way. Her playing is lush and sweet-toned.”
Antje Weithaas
"Giving one another enough artistic freedom, which allows for the taking of musical risks, they had the audience at the edge of their seats right from the start."
Farkas Quintet
“... Lovely sound, beautifully played. There is a lot of definition and finesse to it. Very expressive in the lyrical moments”
Ciconia Consort
“Very reflective and poetic performances which dig deep into the soul both of Chopin and Schubert.”
Camiel Boomsma
"Style, interaction, an approach suffused with a sense of humanity: Quatuor Tchalik's performances bear the signature of one of the great French quartets of the new generation!"

"Any more compellingly idiomatic or richly seasoned cello playing than this would be hard to contemplate" - International Record Review
Raphael Wallfisch
" ...The young Italian conductor, Gioele Muglialdo, was precise to the second, the millimeter! Such perfection would deserve the creation of a special award, the "Honorary Metropolis"
Gioele Muglialdo
“in Dvorak’s G major Quartet, Opus 106……It was a joy to witness the visual communication the quartet displayed with each other……if I had to single out one movement for praise, it would be the slow Adagio, in which the quartet’s glowing tone filled the entire gallery. The exciting finale was delivered with great panache. What a great start to the season.”
Piatti Quartet
"A splendid performance guaranteed with the Berlinskaya-Ancelle duo which, by the virtue of their unified playing, is reflected by an irresistible interpretation marked by a wonderful sense of freshness and relief."
Berlinskaya - Ancelle duo
“These four musicians form a brilliant unit. They work together like a well-oiled machine, making music with a single, big beating heart.”
Weinberg Quartet
Squire Artists is extremely pleased to welcome aboard the Farkas Quintet Amsterdam. This outstanding wind quintet has received tremendous international acclaim from both the public and the press. "... Scintillating ensemble playing in the homophonic passages, which allowed for an unprecedented fusion of timbres between the different instruments."
We are delighted to announce that Squire Artists will now be taking up the worldwide representation of the Dutch Ciconia Consort – The Hague String Orchestra. In ten years’ time this international ensemble of 20 young musicians under the leadership of Dick van Gasteren has built up an extensive repertoire with an emphasis on late Romantic and contemporary music. Renowned for its unique theme-based programming, the Ciconia Consort has revived quite a few forgotten masterpieces, which in turn led to numerous Dutch premieres and world premieres. The ensemble has released four CDs on the ‘Brilliant Classics’ label which received worldwide critical acclaim and are frequently broadcast on radio stations worldwide.
Squire Artists is delighted to announce that we will be taking up the worldwide representation of Dutch pianist Camiel Boomsma. He is particularly known for his unique programmes, which are very different from what is generally performed in concert halls today. A typical example of this is his ‘Wagner Journey’, which received tremendous international acclaim. He convinces his audience with a profound understanding of Wagner’s music and an extraordinary ability to translate this to the piano.
Squire Artists is thrilled to announce the addition of the Quatuor Tchalik to its international roster of artists.
Quatuor Tchalik is notable not least because its members are four siblings who have been making music together since their earliest childhood. This accounts for their entirely natural approach to expressive and versatile quartet playing, based on an extraordinary artistic connection. They are also regularly joined by their brother, pianist Dania Tchalik.
The quartet has performed at the great concert halls of Germany, Austria, Italy, Spain and Switzerland, and also in Asia. They caused a sensation at the 2018 Salzburg International Mozart Competition, taking both the first and the special prize for best interpretation. Quatuor Tchalik has released four highly acclaimed CDs, earning them two Choc de Classica and one Télérama ffff award.
