The Edinburgh Quartet has been a stalwart of Edinburgh University's Reid Hall Concert Series since its foundation in 1959, as was the New Edinburgh Quartet formerly. A series of free lunchtime concerts, they sometimes allow the Quartet to play challenging pieces, but always with due regard for the greatness of the wider classical repertoire.
