Programme Note
Recently awarded prizes at the prestigious ARD International Music Competition in Munich and the Bordeaux International String Quartet Competition, the Chaos String Quartet is quickly establishing itself on the international music scene. Their Conway Hall début programme spans some two centuries, including some early works by Mozart, one of the pillars of the chamber music canon, Schubert’s ‘Death and the Maiden’, and György Kurtág’s 1989 quartet, written in homage to fellow composer, Endre Szervánszky.
About the Sunday Concerts
Founded in the 1880s, our chamber music concert series is the longest-running of its kind in Europe. Conway Hall was purpose-built in 1929 to host concerts and lectures, and they have continued here until the present day. The ethos of “affordable classical music for all” still remains.
