Coffee ConcertCoffee concert

The Resol String Quartet will perform at the first of our 2025 Coffee Concerts on Saturday, 25th January. They met at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland and formed their quartet in 2018, thereafter making Scotland their base. They have taken their name from the Catalan word “resol” meaning reflection on sunlight.

In 2021 they were awarded both the First Prize and the Audience Prize in the Cavatina Competition in the Wigmore Hall. Also in that year, Chamber Music Scotland named them as “Ones to Watch”. In 2023 they performed at Snape Maltings during their residency in Aldeburgh as Britten Pears Young Artists.

The concert is planned to consists of two works:

Haydn – String Quartet Opus 74 No. 1 in C Major
Beethoven – String Quartet Opus 59 No. 3 in C Major

As usual, fresh coffee and home baking will be served beforehand from 10.45 am in the small hall with the concert in the church at 11.30 am. Tickets priced £12 will be available at the door – cash only please. Children accompanied by an adult will be admitted free.
Do join us if you can for what promises to be a most attractive and enjoyable Saturday morning.
