Otherwise unnamed classical string quartet and French protagonists of the 1895 Jules Verne novel L'Île à hélice (variously published in English as Propeller Island; The Floating Island; and The Self-Propelled Island).
The narrative follows them as they travel to the artificial flying island of the title, a playground for the super-wealthy. The quartet is hired to play a number of concerts for the residents while the island tours of the islands of the South Pacific.
Lineup:
- Yvernès, first violin
- Frascolin, second violin
- Pinchinat, viola
- Sebastian Zorn, cello
