2015 Annual Jacqueline Du Pré Charity Concert
Two of Britain's finest award-winning string quartets, the Sacconi and Navarra, are joined at the Wigmore Hall by top British cellist, Guy Johnson in a programme of contrasts - the brilliant textures and vibrant colours of Bridge and Ravel and the titanic Classical quintet by Schubert.
This concert supports Britain's oldest musical charity, The Royal Society of Musicians (Reg. Charity 208879). Three short marches (for 03 March) have been composed especially for the concert in a tradition of musical celebration that stretches back through the Society's history to the eighteenth century.
This will be the 20th Annual Jacqueline du Pré Charity Concert at the Wigmore Hall, poignantly being performed in what would have been the cellist's 70th birthday year.
