    Overview

    Don’t miss the Endellion String Quartet in its 41st and final season. Beethoven’s String Quartet Op.18 No.2 is fresh, imaginative and affectionate and its Finale is full of playful high spirits. Bartók’s highly expressive and striking last quartet was one of the first pieces in the Endellion's repertoire. Mendelssohn’s E minor quartet veers between extreme turbulence and captivating lyricism and includes a delightful Scherzo in his unique Midsummer Night's Dream style.
