CU Brass Ensemble at the Painted Church
The Cambridge University Brass Ensemble (CUBE) returns to the Painted Church once again for a Sunday lunchtime recital in a varied programme for all.
Endellion String Quartet
Wed 15 November 2017
West Road Concert Hall
Haydn’s ‘Rider’ quartet was written in his late maturity and is one of his most loved and admired works. The Shostakovich is one of his most expressive and descriptive pieces: the composer himself wrote a brief summary of the story of each movement which he later deleted from the score but which has survived. Beethoven’s ‘Harp’ quartet, named for the pizzicato passage leading to the return in the first movement, is one of his warmest and most affectionate pieces with a sublime slow movement.
