Music in the Round: Beethoven & Brahms
Join Music in the Round for a classical concert performed by the brilliant Ensemble 360; world-class artists who perform music written specially for small combinations of strings, wind and piano.
Programme:
BRITTEN Three Divertimenti for String Quartet (10’)
BRAHMS Clarinet Quintet in B minor Op.115 (40')
BEETHOVEN String Quartet Op.59 No.2 ‘Razumovsky’ (37’)
You’ll be sitting just metres away from these amazing musicians, performing spine-tingling music with their heart and soul on the Palace Theatre’s stage where the audience surround the performers on all sides.
These exceptional musicians perform one of Beethoven’s dynamic and ground-breaking ‘Razumovsky’ string quartets - a restless and passionate piece, full of the power, turbulence and energy that makes Beethoven one of the best loved composers of all time.
Benjamin Britten’s playful and charming Three Divertimenti also feature, alongside Brahms’s celebrated clarinet quintet, a sublime, colourful and profound work for clarinet and strings.
