with Tim Ridout viola and Björg Lewis cello
Thursday, 21st May 2020 7:30 pm
We regret that this concert has been cancelled due to the coronavirus crisis.
As their fame continues to build across the world, the ever-popular Heath Quartet has been selected for our Celebrity concert. After a Haydn quartet, they will be joined by Tim Ridout (viola), now a BBC New Generation Artist, in a Beethoven quintet. The Concert will end with a sextet, Tchaikovsky’s lyrical ‘Souvenir de Florence’ with Björg Lewis (cello). Don’t miss this charismatic ensemble!
