Programme Note
The internationally acclaimed Chiaroscuro Quartet, under its leader Alina Ibragimova, is praised as "a trailblazer for the authentic performance of High Classical chamber music" in Gramophone magazine. The musicians perform works of the Classical and early Romantic periods on gut strings and with historical bows, "allowing them to find a sometimes astonishing range of dynamics and colours" (BBC Record Review).
The Quartet is joined by star clarinettist Annelien van Wauwe for Mozart's wonderful Quintet. A former BBC New Generation Artist, and Professor of Clarinet at the Royal Conservatory, Antwerp, she is one of the most exciting and original clarinettists of her generation.
