Buxton International Festival has a tremendous reputation, and we are delighted to be heading there to play with our Artistic Partner and good friend Jess Gillam. We open this varied and exciting matinée performance with Shiva Feshareki’s stunning piece Venus/ZOHREH, you can watch a video of us performing it here. Also, later on, the fantastic Brodsky Quartet will take to the stage who are also celebrating their 50th year. Come to Buxton and watch us continue our 50th birthday celebrations in the beautiful setting of the Octagon Hall which dates back to the 1870s.
