In the final concert of this year’s York Chamber Music Festival we play two iconic string quintet masterpieces. Beethoven – going deaf, refused in marriage – nevertheless breaks out into radiant, powerful music, almost symphonic. Brahms, however, is out in the Alpine country taking a break from the hustle and heat of Vienna. There are few, if any, more capriciously exciting pieces in Brahms’s output. Content with his successful career he writes sunshine music.

Beethoven String Quintet in C Major Op. 29
Brahms String Quintet in F Major Op. 88
