Lunchtime Concert - Past and Present

Elder Hall Program revised for 14/11/25

Due to illness, tomorrow's Elder Hall Lunchtime Concert (Friday 14 November) with the Australian String Quartet will feature a revised program.

We are delighted that members of the Australian String Quartet, Dale Barltrop and Francesca Hiew (violins) and Michael Dahlenburg (cello) will be joined by guest violist, Aidan Filshie, to perform Beethoven String Quartet No. 2 in G major, Op. 18 No. 2, alongside a selection of pieces by the Danish String Quartet.

Stay tuned to the ASQ for announcements regarding a rescheduled world premiere of Benjamin Betelli's much anticipated string quartet in 2026.

We look forward to sharing this beautiful concert with you as we conclude the 2025 Elder Hall Lunchtime Concert series.
