“Deeply committed performance by the Archaeus Quartet”

-         The Independent

The Archaeus Quartet will be performing as part of the “Music at King Charles” Autumn Chamber Music Series on Saturday 15th September. This firmly established group will be playing a late work by Haydn, overflowing with melody and musical invention; a group of “Cypresses” by the youthful and impetuous Dvorak: love songs of the utmost tenderness; and the dramatic and exciting “Rasumovsky” op.59 no.2 by Beethoven. An evening’s music making not to be missed!

After celebrating the 400th anniversary of the death of Giovanni Gabrieli earlier this year, the Autumn series at Music at King Charles features a range of highly acclaimed chamber music specialists.  In 2011, the music series was honoured by the Tunbridge Wells International Music Festival with an award for its contribution to the musical life of the area, and we continue to work with the Festival, hosting their opening concert in October.

In this short season of concerts, we feature every number of performers from one to five: solo organists, duos, a piano trio, a string quartet and a piano quintet. We are very pleased to repeat our very successful Young Musicians' Showcase, for which we welcome the very best of the region’s young talent, providing a genuine performing opportunity for gifted youngsters, especially those who may be considering music as a career.

Booking for all four concerts in advance is £14 cheaper than paying on the door. To order tickets, email us at kcmconcerts@blueyonder.co.uk.
