Stamford International Music Festival - Christmas Concert
Join violinist Freya Goldmark and friends for an evening of festive warmth and exceptional chamber music at SIMFestival’s annual Christmas concert.
The evening opens with Mozart’s final completed quartet – String Quartet No.23 in F Major, K590 – a work of refined elegance, joy and warmth. The second half is dedicated to Schubert's String Quintet in C Major, D.956, a work often described as one of the greatest achievements in all chamber music. Composed just weeks before his death, it is at once otherworldly and profoundly human – marked by ethereal lyricism, aching beauty and an astonishing emotional breadth.
As the year draws to a close, we invite you to experience the great works of chamber music performed in the beautiful Arts Centre Ballroom by some of the UK’s most sought-after chamber musicians.
