Finzi Quartet wins loan of 'Evangelists'


British ensemble to play on matched set of Vuillaume instruments


The Finzi Quartet will be able to use the 'Evangelists', a matched set of Vuillaume instruments, for two years after winning a competition at the Wigmore Hall. The instruments are owned by the Swiss Global Artistic Foundation, and were previously loaned to the Modigliani Quartet. Vuillaume made the set in 1863 and named the instruments 'St John', 'St Mark', 'St Matthew' and 'St Luke'.
