Programme Note
“The musicians imbued both works with myriad details of shading and contrast, and beautifully calibrated phrasing” (New York Times)
One of the world’s leading period instrument string quartets, the London Haydn Quartet was born out of a passion for Haydn. They have received invitations to many of the most important concert series in UK, USA and Canada, The Netherlands, Belgium, France, Germany, Spain and Switzerland. The London Haydn Quartet’s series of recordings of Haydn’s quartets on the Hyperion label have met with international critical acclaim. The quartet has given recitals of all-Haydn programmes at New York’s Carnegie Hall, the Cheltenham Festival, Utrecht Festival, Bath Mozartfest, Klara Festival, the Granada International Festival and at Haydn festivals in Esterhazy, Lincoln and Lyon. We are delighted to welcome them back to Conway Hall!
Joining the quartet will be violist David Adams. David is the leader of the Welsh National Opera Orchestra and tutor in violin at the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama. With regular guest appearances, recordings and broadcasts on both violin and viola with the Nash Ensemble, Endellion String Quartet, Gould Piano Trio and Hebrides Ensemble, he has recently recorded the complete Brahms Piano Quartets with the Gould Piano Trio. David has also appeared as guest leader of many of the UK’s symphony and chamber orchestras and recently enjoyed playing Principal Viola with the Chamber Orchestra of Europe.
