34 Carducci Quartet

Part of the Ryedale Festival Summer 2019

Add to my Calendar 21-07-2019 20:00 21-07-2019 22:00 36 34 Carducci Quartet The joyous rhythms and klezmer-like wheeling of David Bruce’s Gumboots celebrates the resilience of black miners in South Africa under apartheid, who were chained together and made to wear wellington boots while they worked in the flooded gold mines, but developed a form of dancing by slapping together their boots and chains. It makes a stark contrast to the beauty and poignancy of Roxanna Panufnik’s prayer-poem evoking the Virgin of Skempe, a miraculous wooden statue in rural Poland. To partner these two contemporary works, the Carducci Quartet and Julian Bliss offer the wit and invention of Haydn and the high-stepping exuberance of Weber’s virtuosic Clarinet Quintet.
