20th century music for Wind Quintet by Hungarian composers is framed by two of the outstanding works for Piano Trio from the Romantic period – Mendelssohn’s bravura Trio in D minor, and Dvorak’s ever-popular and most ‘folky’ chamber work.
2010 is the 50th anniversary of the untimely death of Matyas Seiber and the composer’s daughter, Julia Seiber Boyd, Chair of the Cambridge-Szeged Society, will be in attendance.

One of Haydn’s masterly Op. 33 set of quartets (sometimes called the ‘Russian’) opens each concert this season. Shostakovich’s very expressive eighth quartet – dedicated to the victims of war and fascism – combines ferocity, compassion and despair. Beethoven’s ‘Razumovsky’ completes the Russian flavour. Setting new standards of breadth and depth it also includes a Russian folksong as a nod to its Russian dedicatee.

‘The Endellion is arguably the finest quartet in Britain’ – The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians

‘The Endellion Quartet’s fastidious and elegant playing … every movement delivered with energy, musical insight and a good deal of wry humour’ – BBC Music Magazine

Subscription booking for the Endellion String Quartet’s concerts at West Road is available until 27 August 2010 by contacting Deborah Gordon on 01223 312400.
