Change of Artist
We are sorry to announce that Csaba Klenyán (clarinet) has had to withdraw from the above concert, due to health reasons. We are very grateful to Pierre Génisson (clarinet) for stepping in as a replacement at short notice. The programme remains the same.
Four exceptional chamber musicians share the stage in one of the 20th Century’s most remarkable compositions. The Quatuor pour la fin du temps was originally written and first performed in 1941 during Messiaen’s incarceration by the Nazis as a prisoner of war. By turns exultant, prayerful, apocalyptic and mystical, the piece was inspired by verses from the Book of Revelation concerning the end of time and the beginning of eternity.
This concert is part of the CAVATINA Chamber Music Trust ticket scheme, offering free tickets to those aged 8-25
