Overview

Long-term favourites at Wigmore Hall, where they have held a residency, and also former winners of a Royal Philharmonic Society Award, the Czech musicians – ‘always welcome’ as Seen and Heard has suggested, and rightly enjoying ‘a formidable reputation’ – return with two popular repertory pieces: an early quartet by Beethoven and a work of outstanding melodic and exotic charm by the Russian nationalist Borodin.

This concert is part of the CAVATINA Chamber Music Trust ticket scheme, offering free tickets to those aged 8-25
