Robin Ireland joins the Elias String Quartet to perform some of the greatest string quintets ever written.

Discover Mozart’s expansive lyricism and dazzling counterpoint contrasted with Beamish’s reflective Epilogue. The Elias String Quartet are known for their ability to communicate musical meaning. Associate Artists at Turner Sims from 2012-2015, they have gained an international following with regular tours across Europe and the US. The quartet are keen advocates of contemporary music and have commissioned many works by composers including Sally Beamish.

Simply astounding in the freshness, intensity, assurance, and seeming spontaneity of their playing.
