Programme Note

The Doric Quartet has built a top-quality reputation, with many appearances on air and at large venues in Britain and overseas, and a number of recordings.

Tonight's programme includes Britten's String Quartet No. 1, which has a particularly poignant viola part. The quartet's viola player, Hélène Clément, is privileged to have the composer's own viola on loan from the Britten–Pears Foundation. Tonight, with any luck, we'll hear that famous instrument.
