Programme Note
The Gildas Quartet, praised for their ‘energy, verve and refreshing approach’ have performed to critical acclaim at major venues including the Bridgewater Hall, Barbican, Wigmore Hall and live on BBC Radio 3. Their bold and explorative approach to performance has been recognised by the International Franz Schubert and Modern Music Competition, Graz, where they won first prize in the Audience Engagement Award 2018. Alongside canonic works by Haydn and Debussy, their Conway Hall programme includes William Alwyn’s first String Quartet, with echoes of Dvořák, Janáček and Smetana, and ‘Strum’, by 2024 Grammy-winning composer, Jessie Montgomery
