The ConTempo Quartet at Triskel Arts Centre, Cork, on Saturday 5 April. An NSQF performance of Mozart’s D minor quartet K.421, Rhona Clarke’s ‘Pas de Quatre’ and Beethoven's set of three Rasoumovsky Quartets.
The Contempo Quartet is the resident quartet of the Galway Music Residency and was RTE’s Resident Quartet from 2014 until 2019. Praised as a “fabulous foursome” (Irish Independent) and noted for performances which are “exceptional” (The Strad) and “full of imaginative daring” (The Irish Times), the ConTempo Quartet has forged a unique place in Irish musical life. The group marks its 30th anniversary this year.
In association with the National String Quartet Foundation.
