Sunday Concerts:Karelia Quartet

Formed at the Royal Academy of Music, the Karelia Quartet are a promising new ensemble who were recently prizewinners in the CAVATINA Chamber Music Competition. Grieg’s G minor quartet, thought to have been an inspiration for Debussy’s quartet, completes an exquisite programme which also includes Ravel’s quartet, completed when the composer was just 28, and Haydn’s ‘Dream’ quartet, so named because of its serene slow movement.
