2021 Festival News!

We very much hope to bring you as full a programme as possible this year after last year’s Festival was cancelled. However, because of the ongoing uncertainty of COVID-19 there is the possibility of last-minute alterations.

Currently, the plan is to hold three concerts over the weekend. If socially-distanced audiences are permitted then each concert will be performed twice in order to allow as many people – as safely as possible- to attend. Each of the three concerts will also be live-streamed for those who are unable to come in person.

While the full programme is yet to be confirmed, world-renowned pianist Peter Donohoe will be joining the Sacconis for Schumann and Taneyev Piano Quintets. The Sacconis will also be performing Ravel’s String Quartet and Haydn’s String Quartet Op. 54, No. 2 in C major. We also hope to include some Beethoven and Roxanna Panufnik’s ‘Heartfelt’ Quartet.
