Formed in September 2012 by four musicians currently studying at the Royal Academy of Music, the Halcyon Quartet has quickly established itself as a passionate, engaging and dedicated ensemble.
As well as being granted a place on the Academy’s prestigious Davey Poznanski Quartet Scheme, the group have also been awarded a number of performance opportunities and masterclasses with high-profiled musicians and ensembles. Recently they have worked with Sylvia Rosenberg, Thomas Brandis, the Escher Quartet, the RTE Vanbrugh Quartet, the Wihan Quartet, Garfield Jackson, Richard Ireland, and in October 2013 worked alongside composer Stephen Montague to perform his work After St Ives.
They will prelude tonight’s LCMS concert with two works; the first of Haydn’s Prussian Quartets, and Quartet No. 1 in A Minor by EJ Moeran, a contemporary of Bax and another British composer influenced by Irish literature and landscape.
