Sadly we didn’t make it to Schiermonnikoog Festival this week and understandably our engagements this season have been cancelled, but we are looking forward to playing together again once it is safe to do so. Take care and we hope to see you all soon. The Maconchies x 😷🎶

Last Saturday we performed Elizabeth Maconchy's String Quartet No. 5. This work, especially the third movement, was her favourite of all the quartets she wrote, and we were moved to perform it on the weekend marking the 25th anniversary of her passing.
