BRAHMS STRING SEXTET: Ensemble 360 & Members of the Elias Quartet

In a final chance to catch the members of the Elias Quartet in collaboration with Ensemble 360, this celebration of music for strings centres on Brahms’s spectacular Sextet. Marked by heartbreak and romance, the piece sweeps from the wistful longing of the early movements to the warm and tender triumph of the dazzling fourth movement. Paired with Enescu’s prodigious and intricately structured epic, this luscious Music in the Round evening of string writing showcases the technical brilliance and big-hearted musicianship that has grown across two decades of collaboration among these very special players.

Programme:
BRAHMS String Sextet in G (40′)
ENESCU String Octet in C (40′)
