Fitzwilliam String Quartet, 21st May 2021

It is with great pleasure that we hope to finally welcome to the James Wyatt Room, The Fitzwilliam String Quartet. Originally scheduled for 2019, this had to be moved to 2020 when their concert diary became too full whilst celebrating their  50^th Anniversary season. Re-booked for June 2020! This of course had to be abandoned due to COVID 19, so third time lucky, we hope to celebrate their 52nd Anniversary with them this year!!

This will however be the Fitzwilliam String Quartet with a slight difference. Due to the huge demand, of course, in rescheduling events and opera seasons, one player will sadly, for us, be unable to join the quartet. But happily for us we will instead be able to welcome the wonderful pianist Anna Tilbrook. Together, they will present the following fabulous programme.

SCHUBERT                         String Trio in B flat, D.471

SHOSTAKOVICH               Impromptu for Viola and Piano, Op.33

MOZART                              Piano Quartet in E flat, K.493

SCHUMANN                       Piano Quartet in E flat, Op.47

 

Tickets will be available shortly.
