Wellington 'Light & Dark' concert now on 26 September

...The explanation, then second performance of the Tornyai made it much more approachable. Well done! And the Schubert! We came especially to hear it and you were splendid. Many thanks....

7 August 2018 - Due to a change in the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra schedule that affects three Quartet members we have had to yet again change the date of the Wellington concert in our Light & Dark series. The concert will now be on Wednesday 26 September at 7:30 in St Andrew's on The Terrace.

We're very sorry to have had to make this date change, and hope it doesn't cause you any inconvenience.

Next concerts

Tuesday, September 10 2019, 7:30pm - 9:30pm, St Luke's, 2 Tees St, Oamaru

Our programme begins with Mozart's String Quartet No 17 in B-flat K458. Nicknamed 'The Hunt, this is a high-spirited, joyful work, both rustic and sophisticated. It contrasts well with 'Unbound', an expressive, heartfelt work for string quartet written in 2011 by New Zealand composer Brigid Bisley. For the finale, we are delighted to be joined by Diedre Irons, one of New Zealand's finest pianists, for the sublime Piano Quintet in F minor by Brahms. Combining lyrical beauty and rhythmic muscularity, this is one of the best-loved chamber music works of all time.
