Caminando String Quartet

Caminando String Quartet present a contrasting afternoon programme. 

In the first half, Ludwig van Beethoven’s String Quartet in G major, Op. 18 No. 2 reveals a work of elegance and wit, its genial character shaped by finely judged interplay and a lightness of touch. Following a short interval, the quartet turns to the sensuous sound world of Maurice Ravel’s String Quartet in F major, a masterpiece of colour and texture, where lyricism and rhythmic vitality combine in music of remarkable refinement. The quartet is made up of local professional musicians including Director of Music at King’s Ely, Neil Porter-Thaw and his wife, Nikki Porter-Thaw who is Head of Strings at the school. 

Caminando String Quartet present a contrasting programme of music by Beethoven and Ravel.
