BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artists
Chaos String Quartet
Wednesday 14 May, 7.30pm
Octagon Chapel
Tickets: £10.00 - £18.00
The multi-award-winning Chaos String Quartet return to the Festival for a second year. Formed of musicians from Germany, Hungary, Italy and the Netherlands, they have quickly garnered a reputation for their expressive and boundary-pushing performances, drawing on the principle of ‘chaos’ in art, science, and philosophy.
Characterised by their powerful communication, thoughtful musical and stylistic exploration, and an original selection of repertoire, the quartet is frequently invited to prestigious festivals and concert halls around the world. Highlights of the 2023/24 season include debuts at the Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg, Wigmore Hall, Bozar in Brussels, Schönberg Centre, and Musikverein in Vienna. Looking ahead to the 2024/25 season, the quartet will debut at the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, return to Wigmore Hall and the Musikverein, and embark on tours in North America and China.
We’re delighted they are joining us in Norwich again this year to present a blend of classic and contemporary works in the glorious Georgian surrounds of the Octagon Chapel.
