​On Wenlock Edge

This sensational project – as much a treat for the eyes as for the ears! – sees the Quartet working alongside the tenor Dan Norman and pianist Sholto Kynoch for a performance of Vaughan-Williams’ classic On Wenlock Edge – but with a twist! Live performance meets live film in this project, thanks to the accompanying multi-award winning shadow-play, devised by Jeremy Hamway-Bidgood.  You can see a snippet of the breathtakingly beautiful film here: From Far From Eve and Morning - YouTube

There are many programming options for this project – it can stand alone, or as part of a 60 minute or full-length programme, incorporating both vocal and core classical string quartet repertoire.
