Quartet X is a new, fearless, all-female ensemble, bringing together four of Australia’s most virtuosic and versatile musicians: Courtenay Cleary (violin), Claire Edwardes (percussion), Emily Granger (harp), and Karin Schaupp (guitar). 

With a striking and unusual line-up, the quartet blurs the boundaries between classical precision, contemporary innovation, and genre-bending artistry. Their program reimagines beloved 20th century classical masterpieces alongside fresh arrangements of popular songs and new commissions, creating a musical experience that is as much a guilty pleasure as it is transcendental. 

Driven by a spirit of collaboration and bold curiosity, Quartet X celebrates the mastery of four trailblazing Australian artists across generations, redefining what a modern chamber group can be. 

Quartet X will launch with a national tour and album release in February 2027.
