The Prominent Riga New String Quartet in Gibraltar
Fans of classical music should highlight Tuesday 26th October in their diaries, which is when the promising Riga New String Quartet will perform at The Convent Ballroom, commencing at 8.00pm. The concert, organised by The Gibraltar Philharmonic Society in association with Lombard Odier Darier Hentsch Private Bank Limited, will feature music by Haydn, Shubert, Glazunov and Piazzolla.
The Society’s Artistic Director commented: “The string quartet is one of the most prominent chamber ensembles in classical music and I’m sure we all remember the wonderful and sold out performance with The Schubert Ensemble. On this occasion we are having a classical set up with two violins, viola and a cello and a rather interesting and varied programme which also includes a tango piece by Argentinean composer Astor Piazzolla. This concert definitely is one of the must see activities in this year’s ever promising Autumn Festival.”
Tickets priced at £20 each are available from The House of Sacarello in Irish Town and The Silver Shop at 222 Main Street. Credit/debit card purchase is also available by phoning the Society on 200 72134. A limited number of tickets are also available to Senior citizens and students at a reduced price via The John Mackintosh Hall at 308 Main Street.
