Building the excitement
for BISQC 2013

For over 25 years, BISQC has celebrated the art of chamber music while providing career support for emerging string quartets. The 2013 competition will continue this experience, allowing for an unprecedented number of public performances and an exploration of a wide variety of music, all with the aim of creating a festival-like atmosphere during the week-long event.

The competition has grown considerably since its inception in 1983, and now provides a three-year career development package for the winning quartet, including recitals around the world, marketing and publicity support, and recording and residency opportunities at The Banff Centre.
