Overview
First and Second Prize-winners at the 2012 Wigmore Hall London International String Quartet Competition, the Arcadia and Meccore Quartets, join forces in Mendelssohn’s peerless Octet.
The wit of Haydn’s String Quartet in E flat Op. 33 No. 2, nicknamed for the ‘has-it-finished-yet?’ repetitions of its rondo theme, and Beethoven’s Shakespeare-inspired String Quartet in F Op. 18 No. 1 complete this programme.
This concert is part of the CAVATINA Chamber Music Trust ticket scheme, offering free tickets to those aged 8-25
