Overview

Founded in Katowice in 1978, the ensemble has built up a repertoire including some 300 works written since 1900, more than 100 of which it has premièred. Among these is Alexander Lasoń’s quartet (2000), written in praise of a town in the Silesian highlands; assisted by the Polish pianist, they also champion earlier works by composers of Polish birth.

This concert is part of the CAVATINA Chamber Music Trust ticket scheme, offering free tickets to those aged 8-25
