Information - Ipswich Chamber Music Society – Fitzroy Quartet
Described by leading music critic Barry Millington as “engaging and responsive”, the award-winning Fitzroy Quartet (www.fitzroyquartet.com) were formed in 2015 by four students at London’s Royal Academy of Music, where they were coached by members of the Endellion Quartet.
Their programme for us comprises Haydn’s best-known quartet together with a highly contrasted pair of 20th-century masterpieces by Bartók and Debussy and a “jaunty, seven-minute curtain raiser” by the acclaimed American composer and violinist Jessie Montgomery. This is the first of two ICMS concerts this season to include a string quartet by Bartók (marking the 80th anniversary of his death in 1945), the other being the Marmen Quartet’s return visit on 17 January.
