Programme Note
This special fundraising concert brings together many elements that make our cherished Sunday Concerts series so beloved. Schubert’s String Quintet, completed in 1828 just two month’s before the composer’s untimely death at the age of 31, is undoubtedly one of the pinnacles of the chamber music repertoire.
Quartet Concrète formed at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in 2021 and throughout their time together have earned praise for their natural chemistry, well blended sound and colourful atmospheres. Winners of the 2023 St James’ Chamber Music Competition, they have performed at venues across Europe, including the Cadogan Hall, Barbican, St James Piccadilly, Holker Hall, and Cité Musicale-Metz.
They will be joined by cellist Bartholomew LaFollette, Conway Hall’s Artist-in-Residence for 2026. With a rich and varied career as a soloist and chamber music, he is also a respected educator, and we are delighted that he has worked tirelessly with the quartet in preparation for this special performance in Conway Hall’s beautiful Library.
Tickets include Prosecco or soft drinks, the opportunity to meet the evening’s artists and Conway Hall’s Artistic Director of Concerts in the convivial and relaxed surroundings of our historic venue. Please join us and show your support in celebrating the significant platform Conway Hall has historically provided to young and budding musicians
