Led by Corina Belcea and featuring Suyeon Kang (violin), Krzysztof Chorzelski (viola) and Antoine Lederlin (cello), the Belcea Quartet presents a programme of Beethoven string quartets. The evening juxtaposes early classical poise with late-period introspection, from the radiant op. 18 No. 2 through the contemplative op. 135 to the profound op. 131. The ensemble’s refined phrasing, dynamic interplay and concentrated sonority reveal fresh contrasts and intimate architecture in these masterpieces.

String quartet Quatuor Aviv presents an intimate programme featuring Anna Göckel and Brandon Garbot on violins, Noémie Bialobroda on viola and Daniel Mitnitsky on cello.

Refined ensemble playing, precise articulation and warm sonorities invite close listening and emotional contrast.

Led by Barnabas Kelemen and featuring Jonian Ilias Kadesha (violins), Katalin Kokas (viola) and Vashti Hunter (cello), the Kelemen Quartet presents a programme that moves from Baroque clarity to modern intensity.

The Eliot Quartett offers a concentrated programme of chamber music, exploring contrasts between Classical clarity and late Romantic and 20th-century intensity.

Listeners can expect lucid phrasing, dynamic contrasts and a narrative arc that balances structural rigour with expressive warmth.

Larissa Dedova and violist Maxim Rysanov present an evening devoted to the music of Franz Schubert.

Dedova’s clarity and coloristic touch complements Rysanov’s warm, singing tone, creating a chamber conversation rich in nuance and emotional depth. The recital highlights Schubert’s late harmonic surprises and timeless melodic lines.

Two-piano programme performed by David Chen and Lucas Chiche explores a rich Romantic and Baroque repertoire, including works by Brahms, Bach (arr. Busoni), Liszt, Rachmaninov and Chopin.
