Named after the Romer's Tree Frog endemic to Hong Kong, Romer String Quartet (RSQ) is one of the most active and versatile string quartets in town which has been recognised for its virtuosic performances and creative programming. Recognised for its virtuosic performances described as “full of energy and refinement” with “superb balance and sensitivity in delivering various styles of the string quartet genre” (South China Morning Post), RSQ has constantly been seeking possibilities to go beyond the conventional approach through creative programming.

The four musicians particularly enjoy cross-disciplinary performances in collaboration with artists of diverse background, ranging from dancer, choreographer and multimedia artist, to animator, sand painter, storyteller and indie rock band. Aspiring to create extraordinary musical experiences while pushing the boundaries of a string quartet, RSQ collaborated with acclaimed artists to curate and perform in a variety of genre-defying projects. Since its debut in 2013, the quartet gained wide acclaim for its international appearances at prestigious venues such as Carnegie Hall in the US and Toppan Hall in Japan, and renowned festivals including the Hong Kong Arts Festival and Beare's Premiere Music Festival. 

​RSQ has given over 20 educational and outreach performances as the quartet-in-residence with Premiere Performances Hong Kong, along with masterclasses and workshops at local and overseas institutes.

羅曼四重奏(RSQ)以香港獨有的盧文氏樹蛙命名,是城中最活躍、最多面向的四重奏之一。 RSQ 的演出曾被媒體稱為「精緻和充滿活力」,並且「在呈現弦樂四重奏的各種風格方面達致出色的平衡和敏感度」(《南華早報》)。自2013年首次亮相以來,RSQ 透過創新的節目編排,不斷尋求超越傳統表演程式的可能性。


四位成員特別喜愛探索跨界別表演,曾與來自各種背景的藝術家合作,包括舞者、編舞家、多媒體藝術家、動畫師、沙畫師、詩人和獨立搖滾樂隊等。RSQ致力於創造非凡的音樂體驗,並不斷嘗試突破弦樂四重奏的界限。他們不時與備受讚譽的藝術家合作,共同策劃並參與多個融合藝術類別的項目。RSQ曾到訪國家及地區舉行音樂會,其中包括美國紐約卡內基音樂廳和日本東京凸版音樂廳等,獲得廣泛好評。他們亦曾受邀於香港藝術節及比爾斯飛躍演奏音樂節等著名藝術節演出。

作為飛躍演奏香港的駐團四重奏,RSQ主持了二十多場教育和外展演出,並定期為本地和海外機構舉辦大師班和工作坊。
