Welcome to Snowdonia String Quartet

Originally founded by Katherine Betteridge and Chris Atherton in 2003, the Snowdonia String Quartet has been managed by Helen Schilsky since 2022.

The Quartet is made up of a pool of professional, qualified musicians, who have vast experience of playing in a variety of different musical settings. We have a diverse portfolio of playing in professional orchestras and ensembles over many years.

We have an extensive repertoire of music which covers a broad spectrum of musical genres and are accustomed to adapting to an array of important social occasions such as weddings, christenings, birthday parties and funerals.
