This thesis seeks to explore the reasons why amateur musicians, specifically those in British brass bands, do not commission and/or perform contemporary.

She has given concerto and recital performances throughout Europe and made many solo and chamber music recordings which have won awards in the UK, France and Germany. In 1995 she founded the Dante String Quartet which is now recognised as one of Britain’s finest ensembles, winning a Royal Philharmonic Society Award in 2007 and a BBC Music Magazine Award in 2009.

The Dante Quartet appears at major festivals and concert series in the UK, and has played in Holland, Germany, France, Spain, Switzerland, Poland and Finland.

For the past seven years the quartet held a residency at King’s College Cambridge, and now the group is beginning a new collaboration with Birmingham University. With the quartet, Krysia is the artistic director of the thriving Dante Summer Festival in the Tamar Valley (www.dantefestival.org).
