The Heath QuartetBeethoven Quartet in A Minor op.132 Debussy 1st String Quartet Bartók 3rd String Quartet The Heath Quartet’s reputation as one of Britain’s most exciting young ensembles has grown steadily since its formation in 2002. A natural flair for communication brings a unique energy to the group’s performances, whether they are playing established masterpieces, works by neglected composers or new commissions. Whilst studying at the Royal Northern College of Music, the quartet picked up a hatful of awards including the Sir John Barbirolli Memorial Prize. Their recent appearance in the BBC Proms at the Royal Albert Hall received widespread admiration. Tonight they play three contrasting quartets by three masters of European chamber music. "...a rare musicality… a keen interpretive insight combined
with refined playing, This is one of the most interesting young quartets I have heard in recent years."
