Well done, Carducci Quartet!

Last night, one of our favourite quartets won the Royal Philharmonic Society's prestigious Chamber Music Award. We're particularly glad for the Carduccis because they're not just great musicians, they're also a lovely bunch of people. 

​The award made particular mention of the ensemble's superb Shostakovich performances. You can hear the Carducci Quartet playing Shostakovich's Quartet No. 11 in our new season of Richmondshire Concerts. And before then, if you move quickly, you can hear the awards ceremony, introduced by Andrew McGregor, on Radio 3 at 7:30 tonight, and then on Listen Again.
