Ficino Quartet at Triskel Arts Centre, Cork, on 6 Dec. A National String Quartet Foundation concert featuring the music of Shostakovich, Siobhan Cleary and Beethoven. Tickets www.triskelartscentre.ie
Formed in 2013, the Ficino Ensemble has been committed to exploring the vast chamber music repertoire and presenting thoughtfully programmed concerts. The group regularly performs as a string quartet, and the addition of winds and percussion gives the possibility of playing large-scale chamber works. The members share a dedicated approach to contemporary music and have premiered many works.
